Nationals | Ian Desmond throws, takes grounders

Washington Nationals SS Ian Desmond (oblique) was able to throw and take grounders Monday, Aug. 6, for the first time since landing on the 15-day disabled list July 22. "I think it's good that he's doing some things," manager Davey Johnson said. "Especially aerobically so the blood keeps getting in that area and cleansing it and gives it a chance for the body to heal it."
