Geovany Soto (knee) went 0-for-2 and threw out a pair of runners attempting to steal in his first minor league rehab game with Triple-A Round Rock on Friday. The veteran backstop has missed the entire season after undergoing knee surgery in March, but is finally making tangible progress toward a return. He's expected to rejoin the Rangers immediately following the All-Star break.
