Pittsburgh Pirates ace Gerrit Cole has returned to the team after getting his sore right elbow examined and is already playing catch.
The right-hander is determined to pitch again this season despite beginning a second stint on the 15-day disabled list Monday.
Cole said before Tuesday's game against the Chicago Cubs that it's "comforting to have confirmation that you'll be OK." Cole traveled to Los Angeles for a second opinion with a specialist, who confirmed posterior elbow inflammation.
