Fister, Solis get through first rehab outings

WASHINGTON -- Nationals right-hander Doug Fister (forearm tightness) and left-hander Sammy Solis (shoulder inflammation) had rehab assignments Sunday for Triple-A Syracuse and Double-A Harrisburg, respectively, and both came out of it healthy.

Fister pitched 3 2/3 innings and allowed two runs on seven hits in a 7-2 loss to Pawtucket. He threw 63 pitches and 47 of them went for strikes. Most of the pitches were around 82-84 mph, according to Syracuse PR man Kevin Brown. Three of the seven hits were infield hits. Fister will likely get another start before he returns to the big leagues.
