PHOENIX – It didn’t show up in the box score, but Christian Yelich checked the final empty box of his post-surgery spring to-do list Saturday afternoon.
Standing on second base with a runner behind him at first, Yelich danced off the bag, capturing the attention of Oakland Athletics hurler Jeffrey Springs. The lefty spun and threw back to second once, causing Yelich to scamper back, but before the next pitch was thrown, Yelich timed up the pitch perfectly and broke for third.
