Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve is set to make his season debut Friday night against the Oakland Athletics after the team activated him from the injured list.

He had surgery in March after breaking his right thumb during the World Baseball Classic. At the time of the injury on March 22, it was expected Altuve would miss eight weeks of the regular season.

And eight weeks and a few days later, he's back, with the Astros announcing his return Friday with a video posted to Twitter.
