Rays pitcher Alex Cobb looked good in his rehab debut for Class A Charlotte Saturday, his first game action since suffering an oblique injury in early April.

Cobb tossed five shutout innings and was overwhelming against the minor-league competition. He struck out nine batters and allowed just three hits while throwing 64 pitches.

The next step in his recovery is yet to be determined, but it could see him make his return to the majors. He will likely be evaluated Sunday for soreness before a decision is made.
