After 8 years, Randa Returning to Pittsburgh

Joe Randa, third baseman on the 1997 Pirates, the last Pittsburgh team to contend for a division title, is returning to the city. The Pirates were close to agreement on a $4 million, one-year contract with Randa, pending results of a physical. Randa, 36, a career .285 hitter, has since played for the Tigers, Royals, Reds and Padres.- After passing two physicals, pitcher Kevin Millwood signed his $60 million, five-year deal with the Rangers.
