Catcher Nick Hundley took batting practice on the field at home for the first time since being placed on the DL on May 6th. With a strained right oblique and antsy Hundley, that small bit of progress was extremely significant. Manager Bud Black said that Hundley will probably be in the lineup tomorrow at Triple A Tucson. After a month of consecutive missed games, a player’s endurance could be called into question. But not with Hundley.“He has good actions,” said Black. “He has good arm strength, good rhythm, he’s a good worker. He’s a hard worker.”
Center fielder Cameron Maybin is also on the DL with knee inflammation, although there is no structural damage. Orlando Hudson caps off the list of starters on the DL with an injured groin.
