DETROIT -- The Tigers began their final homestand of the season Thursday with little suspense left. The possibility of Andrew Romine playing all nine positions in a game, however, remains on the list.
Just four players have done it in modern Major League history, the last being then-Tiger Shane Halter in the last game of the 2000 season. Brad Ausmus was the starting catcher on that team, and he ended up playing third, second and first base in that game. Now as Detroit's manager, Ausmus confirmed he's still thinking about adding Romine to the list, and soon.
