Bruce starts jogging, taking batting practice
CINCINNATI -- Reds right fielder Jay Bruce, expected to be out four weeks after he had May 5 surgery to repair torn meniscus cartilage in his left knee, took a big step on Tuesday.
Bruce did some jogging and took batting practice with the team on the field. He wore a wrap around his knee. A couple of days ago, he rode an exercise bike and used an elliptical machine.
"It's progressing very well," Bruce said. "I'm as happy as I could be with it so far."
Bruce hoped to join the Reds on their next road trip on Friday.
