Kansas City Royals manager Matt Quatraro will be back for the second game of the road series against the Detroit Tigers on Friday night, the club said on social media.
Quatraro missed the first game of the four-game series while attending to a personal matter. The club, which announced Quatraro’s absence on Thursday, said it was expected to be a short leave.
