Fri May 9, 5:25 PM EDT

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Los Angeles Angels right-hander John Lackey threw 88 pitches over six innings in an extended spring training game Friday.

Lackey, who went 19-9 with a 3.01 ERA last season, could rejoin the team next week. He opened the season on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right triceps.

``He maintained his stuff the whole way,'' Angels manager Mike Scioscia said before Friday night's game against Tampa Bay. ``His workout today was what we were looking for.''

Lackey previously made three rehab starts for Class-A Rancho Cucamonga.
