Bumgarner ratchets up throwing intensity
(MLB.com San Francisco Giants)

Madison Bumgarner can feel himself coming closer to being ready for game competition. Bumgarner threw 40 pitches off a mound in a bullpen session Saturday without hindrance from his fractured left hand, which the Giants` ace called `95 percent or more` healed despite slight swelling. `Hitting, throwing, any baseball stuff feels normal,` he added.
