Another step

Injured infielder Greg Colbrunn took batting practice Friday and plans on hitting Saturday and Sunday as well.

"It felt all right," said Colbrunn, who had surgery on his right wrist in July. "I really don't have a timetable (for a return). I'm not looking ahead."

Short hop

Utility infielder Greg Colbrunn, recovering from a troublesome right wrist, spent about 10 minutes taking early batting practice Tuesday and hopes to rejoin the club for the final month of the season.
