The Tigers are in the American League Central Division and are the current American League Champions. Since 1992 the team, operating as Detroit Tigers, Inc., a subsidiary of Ilitch Holdings, Inc., has been owned by Mike Ilitch. The club is a charter member of the American League, one of four clubs (with the Boston Red Sox, Chicago White Sox, and Cleveland Indians) still located in its founding city. Detroit is also the only member of the Western League, the AL's minor league predecessor, that remains in its original city. It was established as a charter member in 1894.</description><generator>Fwicki.Com - Fwicki Feed Generator</generator><language>en-us</language><image><url>http://www.fwicki.com/images/ui/feed-link.png</url><title>Fwicki - RSS Management</title><link>http://www.fwicki.com/fwickis/MLB/Detroit-Tigers</link><description>Fwicki - RSS Management</description><width>88</width><height>90</height></image><item><title>AMERICAN LEAGUE - Hartford Courant</title><link>http://www.courant.com/sports/other/hc-04bb-roundup1.artjul04,0,7163264.story?FORM=ZZNR8</link><guid>http://www.courant.com/sports/other/hc-04bb-roundup1.artjul04,0,7163264.story?FORM=ZZNR8292</guid><description>Yankees 4, Blue Jays 2: Robinson Cano and Alex Rodriguez homered for New York.
