Marlins outfielder Giancarlo Stanton, who was out of the lineup for a fifth-straight game Tuesday because of a shoulder injury, took batting practice as expected. Stanton hit several balls to the warning track, according to the Miami Herald.
Manager Mike Redmond didn't give a timetable for Stanton's return, but he said Stanton told him he felt good after swinging the bat. Stanton also played catch before Tuesday's game.
"We're just going to wait and see how he responds," Redmond said. "He hadn't done anything in five days, so we'll see how he feels the rest of the day and look at him tomorrow and go from there. I'm hoping he shows up tomorrow and feel even better."
