MESA, Ariz. — A’s reliever Sean Doolittle will make his Cactus League debut on Tuesday when Oakland hosts the Colorado Rockies.
The A’s have been playing it slow with Doolittle, who was an All-Star closer in 2014 but missed two months last season with a shoulder injury and missed three-quarters of the 2015 season with injuries.
“I was very happy with how it went,” Doolittle said. “It’s my second time facing live hitters and it was a definite improvement from the first time.
