NEW YORK (AP) — Andy Pettitte will make a rehabilitation start for the Yankees’ Double-A farm team at Trenton on Wednesday night.
The 38-year-old left-hander has not pitched in a game since July 18 because of a strained left groin. He threw a bullpen session before Monday’s game against Baltimore.
Pettitte’s rehab start will come in the Thunder’s Eastern League playoff opener against New Hampshire. Yankees manager Joe Girardi projected he will throw four innings or 65 pitches, whichever comes first.
