Rangers' reliever Matt Bush went 'back to basics' during minor league stint | Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Rangers' reliever Matt Bush was recalled from Triple A Round Rock before Monday's series opener against the Yankees.

Bush was sent down on April 25 to give him a chance to work through some control issues. Bush thinks it worked.

"I started throwing more strikes and had some consistent outings down there," Bush said. "It was good. I enjoyed it. Great atmosphere down there. Great group of guys. Very loose, very relaxed."

It also gave Bush a chance to work closely with Rangers' special assistant Roy Silver, who was hired by the club to help Bush navigate his way back into the game after a drunken driving wreck landed him in prison.
