The Detroit Tigers held a news conference on Sunday afternoon to introduce Brad Ausmus as the manager that would replace Jim Leyland.
Fox Sports Detroit has a video of the press conference:
Ausmus was given the number seven which was his number during his first stint with the Tigers as a player in 1996. He finished his 18-year career as a player in 2010 with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
