MILWAUKEE -- Nationals starter Doug Fister made his second rehab start Friday since experiencing forearm tightness and reported no problems, according to manager Matt Williams.
Fister threw six scoreless innings for Double-A Harrisburg, allowing only two hits, while walking none and striking out six.
"The numbers were good, 70 pitches through six innings," Williams said before Saturday's game against the Brewers. "He was efficient, threw all of his pitches for strikes.
"He's back in D.C. today, doing some throwing. We'll get him through a bullpen [session] and see where he's at."
Fister could be slotted back into the rotation if he's able to get through the bullpen session without any soreness or pain, according to Williams, who liked what the reports say about Fister's rehab outing.
