GRAND CHUTE (WLUK) — The Milwaukee Brewers are getting close to getting a key bullpen arm back with DL Hall making his first rehab appearance since going on the IL in June.

Hall pitched a scoreless first inning, striking out a batter giving up just one hit on 15 pitches.

He hopes to rejoin the Brewers pen soon and continue to be a key left-handed arm in the second half of the season.

“Being around the team all year last year and having some success And then coming into this year and building off of that and having probably one of my better seasons this year in the big leagues has been awesome. It’s been such a long process for me since coming over and just battling those small injuries. It’s just a blessing to still be here and still be doing it and finally feeling like I’m getting to the other side of that,” said Hall.

The plan for Hall is to join the Nashville Sounds in Triple-A for their next series against Sugar Land.
