Belts first big-league homer
Pinango went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 2-1 extra-inning win over the Tigers.
Analyse
The rookie outfielder took Kyle Finnegan deep in the seventh inning to get the Blue Jays on the board and give Pinango his first career homer in the majors. He's seeing regular playing time against right-handed pitching with Addison Barger (elbow) back on the IL, and through his first 15 games with Toronto, Pinango is slashing .364/.404/.477 with two doubles, three runs and seven RBI.

Rejoining parent club
The Blue Jays recalled Pinango from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.
Analyse
After being optioned to Buffalo on Saturday, Pinango will make his way back to Toronto just two days later with Addison Barger (elbow) going back on the injured list with a new health concern. Before his recent demotion, Pinango fared well in his first taste of the big leagues, slashing .423/.444/.462 over 27 plate appearances. The Blue Jays will likely turn to Pinango to fill the strong side of a platoon in the corner outfield while Barger and Nathan Lukes (hamstring) are on the shelf.
