Daniel Hudson made his long-awaited return to the big leagues and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night, ending an odyssey for the veteran right-hander that began with torn ligaments in his left knee and included several setbacks in his recovery. Hudson officially rejoined the club about 30 minutes before first pitch in the opener of a three-game series in Kansas City. The 36-year-old Hudson hurt his ACL just over a year ago in the eighth inning of a win over Atlanta.
