Bumgarner has not played a regular season game in 2018 due to a broken pinky finger he sustained during spring training.
The River Cats say Bumgarner is expected to throw about 45 pitches in Saturday's game. He's also expected to make at least two starts for the River Cats before he heads back to San Francisco.
First pitch on Saturday is scheduled for 7:07 p.m. For tickets, head to rivercats.com.
