LOS ANGELES – The Giants had to find a loophole to get Jae-gyun Hwang back on the roster Friday for a three-game series at Dodger Stadium.
They found a loophole.
Because the Giants had just optioned Hwang last Monday, he had to spend 10 days at Triple-A unless he returned to replace an injured player.
Hwang is here at Dodger Stadium, which means the club is expected to place another player on the disabled list. Someone is about to find out that his back flared up on that long flight down the California coast.
This is a big deal for Hwang.
