SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The World Series champion San Francisco Giants have formally announced their $1 million, one-year deal to bring back free agent outfielder Pat Burrell.

The team announced the deal Friday after Burrell passed a physical.

The 34-year-old Burrell came to the Giants on a minor league deal May 29 after his release by Tampa Bay and spent a short stint with Triple-A Fresno before joining the Giants on June 4.

He batted .266 with 18 home runs and 51 RBIs in 96 games for San Francisco, becoming the everyday left fielder.
