GENEVA, Ill. (AP) -Aramis Ramirez had a double in three plate appearances in his first rehabilitation game since going on the disable list May 9 with a dislocated left shoulder.

The Chicago Cubs third baseman also walked and lined out to right field, and scored two runs for the Class A Peoria Chiefs on Friday night.

Also, Cubs center fielder Reed Johnson popped out, singled and was hit by a pitch for Peoria. Johnson is battling back spasms but will likely play with Ramirez this weekend in Peoria before rejoining the Cubs in Chicago for Monday's series opener against the Atlanta Braves.

Both players said they felt fine and on target for that return date after their five-inning stints.
