Yu Darvish still does not have an ETA.
Matt Waldron is also still a ways off.
The knuckleballer shifted his rehab work to Double-A San Antonio, where he pitched into the third inning of a 5-4 win over visiting Wichita on Tuesday.
But Waldron didn’t pitch deep into the third inning.
The 28-year-old gave up a leadoff single in the third inning and was lifted after 47 pitches (26 strikes).
Waldron struck out two, walked two and allowed a run on three hits in two-plus innings. The first two hits were infield singles.
Waldron is rehabbing an oblique injury that he sustained in spring training.
Right-hander Bryan Hoeing (shoulder) also moved his rehab assignment to San Antonio, striking out a batter over a scoreless inning.
Right-hander Victor Lizarraga (9.42 ERA) allowed three runs in three innings in relief.
Right-hander Bradgley Rodriguez (3-0, 3.72 ERA) struck out two over a scoreless inning in the win.
Center fielder Nerwilian Cedeno capped his Double-A debut with a walk-off double. He went 2-for-4.
First baseman Romeo Sanabria (.883 OPS) went 4-for-4 with a double, an RBI and two runs.
San Antonio is 20-20.
