PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Chad Kuhl underwent reconstructive surgery on his right elbow and will miss the entire 2019 season.The team says Kuhl had the surgery Wednesday in New York. Kuhl went 5-5 with a 4.55 ERA in 16 starts for Pittsburgh this season. The Pirates initially placed him on the disabled list because of right forearm soreness following a loss to the New York Mets on June 26.Kuhl took a month off hoping to avoid surgery. But he recently endured a setback when the pain resurfaced. He called the decision to have surgery "difficult" but is confident he'll return down the road.The 26-year-old Kuhl is 18-20 with a 4.27 ERA in three seasons with the Pirates.___More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/tag/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports |

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Burglars caused $10,000 worth of damage to Los Angeles Dodgers star Yasiel Puig's home while attempting to steal a safe.According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the suspects broke into Puig's San Fernando Valley home Tuesday night. They ransacked the residence, found a safe in the second-floor master bedroom, and dragged it downstairs to the front door.Police said Thursday that the suspects then fled, leaving the safe in the entry way. An inventory is being conducted to determine what else was taken. Puig was at Dodger Stadium for a game on Tuesday."I (did) not sleep too much yesterday," Puig said Wednesday, without offering details about the latest incident.Police are seeking the public's help in identifying three suspects, including the driver of a black four-door Toyota vehicle with paper license plates.Police say the same suspects are believed to have been involved in another burglary attempt at Puig's home on Aug. 30.Previous break-ins at Puig's residences occurred in March 2017 and during Game 7 of last year's World Series.___More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/tag/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports |
