Left-hander Tyler Holton will be the opener for the Detroit Tigers in the final road game of the regular season on Sunday.

The Tigers (81-74) play the Baltimore Orioles (86-69) at 1:35 p.m. at Camden Yards.

The Tigers are locked in a four-team battle for the final two American League wild-card spots with the Kansas City Royals (82-73), Minnesota Twins (81-73) and Seattle Mariners (80-75).

Catcher Dillon Dingler; infielder Andy Ibanez; infielder/outfielder Zach McKinstry; and outfielders Wenceel Perez and Justyn-Henry Malloy will be available off the bench. The full lineup is below.

Right-hander Albert Suarez (8-6, 3.60 ERA) will start for the Orioles.

Tigers right-handers Ty Madden and Casey Mize could be options as multi-inning relievers to follow Holton (7-2, 2.30).

Suarez, 34, debuted with the San Francisco Giants in 2016 but has spent most of his career abroad in Japan and Korea. He signed with the Orioles before this season.
