Orioles notes: Chris Tillman's first throws since cortisone shot go well

Orioles right-hander Chris Tillman restarted his road back from shoulder soreness with a game of catch from as far as 90 feet Sunday.

Manager Buck Showalter said the session “went well,” and added that while Tillman will likely have to restart his progression with half-mound sessions and bullpens to build back up his arm strength, he’ll still come north when camp breaks to experience Opening Day and rehab under the supervision of the team’s trainers.

“They really want to have him with them during the side sessions,” Showalter said.
