ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) Injured Baltimore Orioles closer Zach Britton is scheduled to start a rehab assignment Wednesday with Triple-A Norfolk.
The left-hander is coming back from right Achilles' tendon surgery.
Britton threw a two-inning simulated game before the Orioles played Tampa Bay on Saturday. Orioles manager Buck Showalter said ''everything went great for Zach.''
Britton also went through fielding drills.
