ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Texas Rangers will play without manager Bruce Bochy on their bench on Monday night.
The team announced several hours before its game against Detroit that Bochy is dealing with a "scheduled personal matter." The team didn't elaborate on his absence, but said he was expected to return for Tuesday's game.
Will Venable, the team's associate manager, will run the Rangers for the series opener against the Tigers. Bochy told Venable on Sunday that he would be out, and made out the lineup for the game that he is missing.
