Cain (forearm) threw 25 pitches in a simulated game Tuesday, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Tuesday's session marked the first time Cain has faced hitters since landing on the disabled list in early April. He was able to throw all his pitches and said he felt good afterward. It's not clear when he will throw next, but expect him to see batters in the box moving forward, barring any setbacks.
