Jung Ho Kang Agrees to Check Into Rehab Program

Jung Ho Kang is a fantastic baseball player. This is close to indisputable at this point, with his combination of solid defense and insane upper-deck power. However, none of this matters if Kang isn’t on the field. At this point, this scenario seems to be entering the realm of possibilities. Kang has been arrested on three DUI charges since 2009, with the most recent one coming in December 2016, and still hasn’t been absolved of all wrongdoing in a sexual assault case in Chicago in early 2016.

However, it appears that Kang is taking the next step towards a possible recovery.
