Unlike the last postponement in September, this game will be made up. It will be rescheduled at a later date, the Tigers announced.
The Indians return to Detroit on June 30-July 2 and Sept. 1-3. Both teams are off on July 3 and Aug. 31, but a makeup game on either day would force the Indians to play every day for 27 consecutive days or more.

The Tigers will keep their pitching rotation in order.
Michael Fulmer, who was scheduled to start Thursday, will start Friday’s series opener against the A’s opposite Andrew Triggs in a nice matchup of young starters.
Jordan Zimmermann will start on Saturday, followed by Daniel Norris on Sunday.

May 5 in Tigers and mlb history:

1922: Facing the Detroit Tigers, Bill Bayne of the St. Louis Browns pitches a no-hitter into the 9th inning. Detroit manager Ty Cobb then sends up five straight pinch hitters, the first of whom breaks up the no-hitter. One of the pinch hitters Cobb inserts is Bob Fothergill, who bats for him and strikes out, becoming the only man ever to pinch hit for Cobb. The Browns win.

1925: Detroit Tigers manager Ty Cobb hits three home runs, a double and two singles, to lead his team to an 14 - 8 victory against the St. Louis Browns at Sportsman's Park.

1948: The Detroit Tigers purchased Marlin Stuart from the St. Louis Browns.

1949: Charlie Gehringer, great second baseman of the Detroit Tigers between 1924 and 1942, is selected to the Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers Association of America with 159 votes on 187 ballots.

1963: The Detroit Tigers released Vic Wertz.

1991: The Detroit Tigers released Danny Leon.

1993: The Detroit Tigers released Mike Garcia.

2013: Justin Verlander makes a bid for his third career no-hitter, keeping the Astros hitless into the 7th inning, before allowing a one-out single to Carlos Pena; he gives up another single to Carlos Corporan but gets out of the inning with a double play ground ball and then leaves. The Tigers win easily, 9 - 0. Verlander is now 4-2 with a 1.55 ERA.
