Nationals right-hander Stephen Strasburg struck out seven batters in five innings in a rehab start on Saturday night. He allowed one run on two hits. It was Strasburg's fifth minor league appearance since undergoing Tommy John surgery to repair a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow. "I was really able to pound the zone. I think I went out there and really focused on good tempo, attacking the strike zone," Strasburg said. "Really just going back to the mindset I had before. It's a lot of time, you forget some of the little things you key in on during the game just because you have so much time off."
