LOS ANGELES -- For the first time in nearly 23 months, Brandon Beachy will pitch in a major league game, named the starting pitcher for the Dodgers against the Brewers for Saturday.
"I can't even remember 23 months ago," Beachy said Friday with a smile. "I feel like I can get people out. I feel good."
Manager Don Mattingly made the announcement on Friday. Beachy, who made five minor league rehab starts between Class-A Rancho Cucamonga and Triple-A Oklahoma City, was brought up earlier in the week as a possibility for Saturday, though on Thursday Mattingly downplayed the chances Beachy would start Saturday.
