San Francisco— Left-handed reliever Chris Capuano moved another step closer to returning to action by throwing a 45-pitch bullpen session Tuesday afternoon at AT&T Park.
Capuano, 37, has been on the 15-day disabled list since May 26 with elbow soreness. His next step is slated to be simulated action against hitters during the Brewers' four-game series in Los Angeles that begins Thursday.
"It went really good," said Capuano. "It's on the right trajectory right now. I'm just trying to check them off one at a time. I've got a couple of bullpens in, built up a little stamina.
