Baltimore Orioles pitcher Chris Tillman is scheduled to start Tuesday against the Seattle Mariners after missing his last two outings because of a left ankle sprain, according to MASN Sports. Tillman was originally set to return to the mound Sunday or Monday, but the Orioles wanted to give the ankle as much time as necessary to heal. He suffered the injury in the ninth inning of his last start against the Atlanta Braves. "I would like to get in as soon as possible," Tillman told the Baltimore Sun on Saturday. "These guys have been picking me up. I would like to get in there and do my job, do my part." The right-handed Tillman struggled most of the season before posting a 1.31 earned-run average in five July starts. The Orioles are in third place in the American League East at 55-53.
