The Pittsburgh Pirates have reinstated outfielder Andrew McCutchen from the 10-day injured list, following a two-week absence due to left knee inflammation. The 37-year-old, who has played 101 games this season with a batting average of .235 and 16 home runs, will return to his role as the team's designated hitter and leadoff hitter. In addition, the Pirates placed pitcher Ben Heller on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation and announced that Daulton Jefferies will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Indianapolis. McCutchen was injured while running the bases during a game against Seattle on August 16. This marks McCutchen's second stint with the Pirates after previous tenures with several other MLB teams. Heller has struggled this season, posting an 11.25 ERA in eight appearances.
