Angel Manager Buck Rodgers underwent a second surgery on his right elbow, which was reassembled in a lengthy initial procedure days after the team’s May 21 bus crash.

Rodgers said Lewis Yocum and Bob Chandler, at Centinela Hospital Medical Center, removed three pins and other hardware inserted during the first operation.

Yocum said an estimate of how much mobility Rodgers will regain “is premature, because it was such a devastating injury. Hopefully, he’ll regain enough for it to be functional. “
