The New York Yankees will get Max Fried back in their rotation on Wednesday during a doubleheader against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Yankee Stadium. The left-hander is set to make his first start since May 13 after recovering from a bone bruise in his left elbow.
The Yankees announced that Fried will pitch Game 2 of the doubleheader, which begins at 7:05 p.m. ET. Gerrit Cole is scheduled to start the opener at 1:05 p.m. ET.
Tuesday's originally scheduled game was postponed due to inclement weather and rescheduled as part of the doubleheader. Fried was originally expected to make another rehab start before returning next week.
Fried has been on the injured list since May 16. In his lone rehab outing, he allowed two runs over three innings. The Yankees enter the day at 56-44 and trail the Tampa Bay Rays by 1.5 games in the AL East.
