Reds starter Harang has appendectomy

PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Cincinnati Reds starter Aaron Harang is out for the rest of the season after an emergency appendectomy. Harang woke Saturday morning in Pittsburgh with pain near is abdomen. He was examined later that afternoon and driven by team clubhouse manager Rick Stowe back to Cincinnati, where the surgery was performed at The Good Samaritan Hospital. The 31-year-old Harang will be restricted from strenuous physical activity for three weeks, but manager Dusty Baker said the surgery was successful.

Harang was to be the Reds' starter Wednesday in Milwaukee. Baker had not made a decision on who will start in his place.
