Olsen, Chico throw in intrasquad game Both left-handers throw four innings without any concerns By Bill Ladson / MLB.com 03/18/10 5:37 PM ET VIERA, Fla. -- Nationals left-handers Scott Olsen and Matt Chico pitched in Minor League intrasquad games Thursday, and both had fine outings. They each pitched four innings, and while Chico didn't allow a run, Olsen gave up one unearned run. They pitched at the Minor League complex because the Major League team had the day off. Olsen's fastball was clocked as high as 86 mph, which was slower than what he threw Saturday against the Astros. That day, Olsen threw 88 mph. Olsen, who is expected to be in the rotation on Opening Day, said after Thursday's game that he threw the baseball without any pain. He continues to say that he needs to build arm strength. Olsen missed the second half of last season because of left shoulder surgery. The velocity didn't concern Olsen. "I'm really not worried about that, but it's 10 in the morning," he said. "We have our own guys in there. It's hard to get up for days like today. But there is no pain, so I feel good where I'm at." In his last start against the Astros on Saturday, Chico was hit hard, allowing six runs -- five earned -- in one-plus innings. But Thursday was a different story as he gave up two hits and didn't walk a batter. He threw 46 pitches, 19 of them in the first inning. Chico wasn't available for comment. 由於我们今天在大联盟的春训行程是休兵日，所以Olsen 和 Chico 两人就到小联盟打了 一场 intrasquad games(指同一支球队的球员们自组成两支以上的球队然後进行比赛)。 两人都投了4局而且表现不错。Chico目前还不能跑步，所以Olsen也决定放弃跑步训练 来陪他。 Olsen的快速球目前最高可以到86英里，这比他上礼拜六对太空人的比赛中所投出的 88英里还要慢，不过好消息是他的手完全没有任何疼痛的感觉，他并表示自己还是需要 加强手臂的力量。Olsen去年因为左肩受伤而缺席了球季後半段的比赛，国民期待他能够 在开幕战的时候出现在先发轮值里。 关於球速的问题则并未影响到Olsen。 「我并不担心这件事情，我并未感到疼痛，目前我的情况很好。」 再来说到的是Chico。上一场他对太空人队的比赛被彻底打爆，只投了一局多就失掉了 6分，其中有5分是自责分。不过今天他的表现就不一样了，只被敲出两支零星安打并且 没有投出任何保送，他一共投了46球，只有第一局用了19球投得比较辛苦而已。他并 没有对他自己今天的表现发表任何看法。 --
