Bumgarner 'letting it go' in latest 'pen session
Amy Gutierrez gives an update on Madison Bumgarner, who threw a 20-pitch bullpen session for the first time since being injuredSAN FRANCISCO -- Giants left-hander Madison Bumgarner continued progressing toward pitching a simulated game later this week as he flung 30 pitches off a bullpen mound Sunday.
Bumgarner increased his pitch count by 10 from Friday's bullpen session, which represented his first work off a mound since he put himself on the disabled list by sustaining multiple injuries in an April 20 dirt-bike accident.
Giants manager Bruce Bochy liked what he saw of Bumgarner, who threw all fastballs.
"At one point, he was letting it go," Bochy said.
