KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- A day after being removed in the sixth inning due to lower back tightness, Detroit Tigers right fielder J.D. Martinez was back in the lineup.
Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said Martinez took some swings on Tuesday and felt fine.
Ausmus said shortstop Dixon Machado is getting an "on day" (as opposed to Jose Iglesias getting an off day).
Machado hasn't started since before the All-Star break.
