Skip Schumaker Thrown Out Of Rehab






Skip Schumaker is on a rehab assignment in Louisville which started on Monday night.  He dislocated his shoulder diving for a ball on March 22 in Goodyear.

Schumaker hit a pair of doubles in a 3-for-4 night.

On Tuesday, Schumaker struck out and was thrown out of the game for arguing a call at secondbase.


“Schumaker swung the bat well," Bryan Price said. He feels good. The issue right now is there’s a lot of bad weather in his neck of the woods and a day off tomorrow. So we’re trying to find alternatives to make sure he stays active over the next 48 to 72 hours. Schumaker was signed a two-year contract with the Reds on November 26 to provide bench strength.  He is expected to backup Brandon Phillips at secondbase and play the outfield.  He was in leftfield the day he was hurt.

Schumaker hit .441 in 14 games this spring with one home run and seven RBI.  He also hit three doubles.
