Indians minor league recap: Michael Brantley rehabs in Mahoning Valley

The Doc is in! Again!

With the Columbus Clippers and Akron RubberDucks heading into their All-Star breaks, it was up to the bottom levels of the Cleveland Indians affiliates to provide some excitement on Monday. Only the AZL Indians were able to do so with a win, but more importantly, Michael Brantley began his rehab with the Mahoning Valley Scrappers.

Brantley only played five innings, as was initially planned, but this is a huge step back for the injured outfielder.

Lynchburg Hillcats 5, Salem Red Sox 6

The Lynchburg Hillcats offense had a pretty solid day, overall, racking up 12 hits and walking five.
