Angels' Jose Cisnero: Begins rehab assignment

Cisnero (shoulder) tossed a scoreless inning during his first rehab appearance with Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.

Cisnero has been on the shelf since late April due to right shoulder inflammation but has finally been cleared to pitch in games. Given the length of his absence, the reliever is likely to require a handful of rehab appearances before rejoining the Angels' bullpen.
