Yoshinobu Yamamoto still plans on helping the Los Angeles Dodgers pursue a World Series title this year.

The right-hander, who hasn't appeared in a game since June 15 because of right triceps tightness, pitched two innings in a simulated game Wednesday and said through an interpreter, "the feeling was pretty good. Everything is starting to come all together," per the Associated Press (h/t ESPN).

Manager Dave Roberts explained the next step is to throw three innings in the upcoming five days ahead of a rehab assignment and potential return in September.
