Kang rejoins Bucs for series in St. Louis
- Updated: May 5, 2016
PITTSBURGH — Jung Ho Kang is back with the Pirates.
After spending the last 7 1/2 months recovering from traumatic left knee injuries, Kang rejoined the Bucs in St. Louis on Thursday before their three-game weekend series against the Cardinals, which begins Friday night at Busch Stadium.
The Pirates have not confirmed any roster moves, but it appears corner infielder Jason Rogers has been optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis to make room for Kang, the second-year South Korean third baseman who burst onto the scene as a rookie last season.
Catcher Francisco Cervelli posted a picture on his Instagram account of himself and Kang with a caption that begins, “My brother is back.” Kang was with the club when its bus arrived at the team hotel, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported from St. Louis.
