Jack Kochanowicz News: Officially recalled

The Angels recalled Kochanowicz from Triple-A Salt Lake ahead of his start Wednesday versus Texas.

After giving up 25 runs (22 earned) in 21.2 innings over his last five starts in the majors, Kochanowicz's ERA ballooned to 6.19 before being demoted to Salt Lake on Aug. 11. He'll match up against a Rangers offense Wednesday that put up eight runs against him in just 2.2 frames July 10 and has registered an .811 OPS over its last 10 games.
