Kang meeting demands of rehab assignment

DENVER -- The Pirates continue to get good reports regarding a quartet of players on the disabled list.

Third baseman Jung Ho Kang made his seventh rehab appearance Wednesday with Indianapolis.

"Jung Ho Kang is playing nine innings of third base at Triple-A," said Pirates head athletic trainer Todd Tomczyk. "He continues to show physiologically good signs of recovery. He continues to meet the demands of the rehab."

Kang was 3-for-20 (.150) with a home run, three runs scored and three RBIs in his first six games.

"It's his second time he's gone back-to-back games," Tomczyk said.
