Slugs homer in loss O'Hearn went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Saturday in a loss to the Cubs.

Impact O'Hearn's long ball was huge at the time, as it turned a two-run deficit into a one-run lead. However, the Pirates' bullpen couldn't hold the advantage, and two Chicago runs in the eighth inning led to a Cubs win. O'Hearn just returned from a six-week stay on the injured list Friday and went 0-for-2 in his first game back after entering late in the contest. He's expected to see action at first base and as the DH for Pittsburgh down the stretch.

Making return from IL The Pirates activated O'Hearn (quadriceps) from the 10-day injured list Friday.

Impact Sidelined since late July with a left quadriceps strain, O'Hearn has been cleared to return after going 1-for-7 with one double and a 1:2 BB:K in two rehab games with Triple-A Indianapolis. The 33-year-old has authored a .270/.334/.454 batting line with 17 home runs over 96 contests this season. O'Hearn will hit in the middle of the batting order down the stretch for the Pirates.

SEPTEMBER 8 • RUMBUNTER.COM

Kicking off rehab Tuesday O'Hearn (quadriceps) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact O'Hearn has not played in a game since he went down with a left quad strain in late July, but he's been cleared to test things out at the Pirates' top minor-league affiliate. The 31-year-old is aiming to be reinstated to the active roster ahead of this weekend's series at Wrigley Field against the Cubs.

Closing in on rehab assignment Pirates general manager Ben Cherington said Sunday that he's hopeful that O'Hearn (quadriceps) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment "early-ish" during the upcoming week, Dann...

Impact On the shelf since Aug. 1 due to a left quad strain, O'Hearn resumed taking part in light baseball activities just over two weeks later after sustaining the injury and recently moved his rehab program to Pittsburgh. O'Hearn appears to have steered clear of any setbacks while ramping up and is now ready to move on to the final phase of his recovery by getting in some competitive at-bats in minor-league games. The 31-year-old is believed to be targeting a return from the injured list during next weekend's series in Chicago versus the Cubs, but the Pirates will wait and see how he fares on his rehab assignment before deciding when he'll be activated.

SEPTEMBER 6 • SI.COM

Targets return versus Cubs next week O'Hearn (quadriceps) is aiming to be activated from the 10-day injured list for the Pirates' Sept. 11-13 series against the Cubs, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Impact O'Hearn has been ramping up baseball activities as he works his way back from a left quad strain, noting Thursday of his rehab that there's "still a ways to go but I'm trending in the right direction." The 33-year-old has missed the last five weeks of action, so he will likely require a few rehab games before rejoining the Pirates' active roster.

Resumes light baseball activities O'Hearn (quadriceps) has been cleared to play catch and take some swings in the batting cage, Jason Mackey of MLB.com reports.

Impact It's been almost three weeks since O'Hearn landed on the 10-day injured list with a left quad strain, and he's been cleared to re-incorporate some light baseball activities. O'Hearn will report to the Pirates' spring training complex in Florida later this week to continue ramping up his rehab. He was given a 6-to-8 week timeline when he went down, and it would seem O'Hearn has a good shot to be back on a shorter end of that timetable.
