Yu Darvish throws another BP session for Rangers

Updated Mar. 4, 2020 10:08 p.m. ET

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) Texas Rangers ace Yu Darvish has finished throwing another live batting practice session.

Darvish threw 45 pitches during a session Tuesday afternoon that was broken up to simulate three innings. He threw 14 pitches in the first set, 17 in the second and 14 in the last.

After throwing a similar BP session last Thursday, Darvish decided he wanted to do that again before his first minor league rehab start.

So instead of pitching for Double-A Frisco on Tuesday, he was at the Rangers ballpark five hours before their game against the New York Yankees throwing against teammates Ryan Rua, Hanser Alberto and Brett Nicholas.
