PHOENIX -- D-backs outfielder A.J. Pollock faced live pitching on Tuesday, taking another step forward in his rehab from the fractured right elbow he sustained in an exhibition game on April 1.
Pollock faced rehabbing starting pitcher Rubby De La Rosa at the team's facility at Salt River Fields in nearby Scottsdale. Pollock's next step will be to play in the Arizona Rookie League, likely later this week, in his first game action since undergoing surgery.
"Physically, I feel really good," Pollock said. "It's just fun to get out there and start hitting again.
