Oakland — Detroit Tigers right-hander Mike Fiers isn't expected to miss a start after having coming out of his last game Wednesday after just two innings.
He will get an extra day to recover, however. Manager Ron Gardenhire said before Friday’s series opener in Oakland that Fiers is scheduled to pitch Tuesday in the second game of the Tigers’ series in Anaheim against the Angels.
Gardenhire said Fiers was good to go. He’s getting the extra day as much as anything because of the day off the club enjoyed Monday before this West Coast swing.
