The Tigers scheduled reliever Phil Coke to pitch in a minor-league game as he tries to get his innings in to be ready for the season. Coke, who pitched in an intrasquad camp game and another minor league game last week, has said that he struggles to get in his work without game intensity.

March 24 in Tigers and mlb history :

1984 - The Detroit Tigers acquire relief pitcher Willie Hernandez and first baseman Dave Bergman from the Philadelphia Phillies for catcher John Wockenfuss and outfielder Glenn Wilson. Hernandez will win the American League MVP and Cy Young awards after saving 32 games with an 1.92 ERA and 140.1 innings in 80 pitching appearances. His brilliant pitching during the postseason will help Detroit to the World Championship.
