Analysis:
After some stops and starts during his rehab process, Pence resumed swinging a bat Tuesday and is on track to take batting practice when the Giants take on the Nationals in DC this weekend. If he is able to get through batting practice without any setbacks, he could return next week against either the Mets or Phillies.
