Sox's Robert goes 1-for-3 with 1 RBI in first minor-league rehab game

After tearing his right hip flexor on May 2 and going on the injured list, White Sox center fielder Luis Robert was looking forward to playing his first rehab game with class A Winston-Salem Wednesday night.

"I've felt pretty good for the last two weeks," Robert said through a translator on Monday. "At first I was a little concerned or afraid because I wasn't sure if I was going to be at full speed. But then I started feeling more comfortable, more secure about the leg and right now I feel pretty good."

Batting third and playing center against Jersey Shore, Robert was 1-for-3 with an RBI single in the fifth inning before exiting the game.
