Dodgers pitcher Hyun-jin Ryu completed an important milestone on Thursday, throwing off a mound for the first time since his shoulder surgery last May, the latest step in a long rehabilitation process for the left-hander.
Ryu, back in the U.S. on Monday to continue his training, more than a month before pitchers and catchers are scheduled to report to camp, threw long toss at Camelback Ranch before then throwing off a mound in the bullpen area just outside the Dodgers clubhouse.
Daum Sports was there to capture the events, and posted several photos, like this one:.
