HBT: Cobb faces first hitters since concussion

Alex Cobb hasn?t pitched in a game since taking an Eric Hosmer line drive off the side of his head back on June 15. But his return is probably nearing.

According to beat writer Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times, the right-hander threw live batting practice on Sunday afternoon at Tropicana Field without a protective screen and reported no mental or physical discomfort. It was his first time facing live hitters since he was diagnosed with a concussion.

?It?s a relief,? Cobb told reporters after the workout. ?When the incident happens, you think the worst naturally, so being back out there kind of settles your nerves.?And you realize that you can do it again. So I?m happy.?

Cobb is scheduled to throw another round of batting practice on Thursday in Port Charlotte, Florida ? the site of Rays spring training. If that goes smoothly, he should be cleared for a minor league rehab start.

The 25-year-old had a 3.01 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 76/23 K/BB ratio through 83 2/3 innings this season.
