Dodgers pitcher Brandon League faced five batters Sunday, allowing one hit and one unearned run, in his first rehab appearance of the season with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga.

League started the game in Lancaster. The first batter League faced reached on a fielding error by second baseman Brandon Trinkwon. A flyout and a groundout followed, before an RBI single drove in the only run against League. The next batter grounded into a forceout.

League has spent the entire season on the 60-day disabled list with pain in his right shoulder. He’s expected to make several rehab appearances before he is activated. League is permitted to spend up to 30 days on the rehab assignment.
