| Pirates' Doumit plays for 1st time since injury |
|
DUNEDIN, Fla. (AP) -Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Ryan Doumit caught five innings of a Gulf Coast League game Friday, the first time he has played since breaking his right wrist April 19. Doumit was hitless in two at-bats with a walk in the first of two scheduled appearances for rookie league Bradenton. ``I'll play one more game here (Saturday), then go to Indy (Triple-A Indianapolis) for four or five games. Then I will be back up with the team,'' Doumit said. ``The wrist feels good. It felt good to get back out on a baseball field and break a bit of a sweat.'' Pirates general manager Neal Huntington has said Doumit is not expected back until after the All-Star game. Doumit's injury, which occurred while he was batting against Atlanta, required surgery and a lengthy healing time before he could resume throwing and hitting. |
