Pirates' Jung Ho Kang: Out of lineup Saturday
Kang is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rangers.
Analysis:
The Pirates will give Kang the day off Saturday and plug Matt Joyce into the DH spot against right-hander Yu Darvish, who is making his season debut. Kang has been on a tear over the past week, slashing .412/.444/.706 with six RBI. He figures to rejoin the lineup for Sunday's series finale in Texas.
