Phillies' Seranthony Dominguez: Throws to hitters

Dominguez (oblique) faced live hitters during a throwing session Friday, Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

It's the first time he's faced hitters since he went down with a left oblique strain in mid-June. Dominguez would appear to be close to rejoining the Phillies' bullpen, although the team has yet to indicate whether he will require a rehab assignment.
