Nationals' Erik Davis throws for first time since Tommy John surgery

Nationals relief pitcher Erik Davis threw his first bullpen session Tuesday since undergoing Tommy John surgery before the 2014 season. Davis threw just 25 pitches, but it was a big step for the 28-year-old, who hopes to be back in the majors by September.

"It's great. It's a good feeling because it's been over a year since I've been on the mound," Davis said. "It's a major milestone for me, but I understand that the work is not done. I'm going to keep working hard on the field."
