Jung-Ho Kang is set to rejoin the Pittsburgh Pirates after being granted a work visa to enter the United States, team president Frank Coonelly told Rob Biertempfel of The Athletic.
"After a lengthy process, we are pleased that Jung Ho has been allowed to re-enter to the United States," team president Frank Coonelly said. "We are encouraged by the steps that Jung Ho has taken to date and are hopeful that having the game he loves taken away from him for more than a year has driven home the reality that he must make better life decisions as we move forward together.
