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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
Bench coach Paul Hoover managed the team during Kansas City\u2019s 4-3 loss to the Tigers on Thursday. Vance Wilson served as the interim bench coach and Jos\u00e9 Alguacil coached third base.<\/p>\n
After leading the club to consecutive winning seasons for the first time in a decade, Quatraro earned a three-year contract extension during the offseason that will keep him in Kansas City through 2029. The extension has a team option for 2030.<\/p>\n
The Royals are fifth in the AL Central with a 43-61 record, 6 1\/2 games behind the fourth-place Tigers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
