The Pittsburgh Pirates and their fan base were excited to see Jung Ho Kang get back to the United States. After getting a DUI in the 2016-2017 off-season, the former up and coming third base star could not get back into the United States. When a non U.S. citizen has an active investigation going on against him they are denied their work VISA to re-enter the country. Ultimately, Kang was given a two year prison sentence in South Korea. However, they suspended the sentence and basically allowed him to be on probation over the next two years.
