TAMPA, Fla. (AP) – New York Yankees reliever Andrew Miller plans to pitch with a broken wrist in his glove hand.

Miller sustained a chip fracture of his right wrist Wednesday when hit by a line drive off the bat of Atlanta’s Willians Astudillo’s liner.

“I think I can work around it,” Miller said Thursday before the Yankees played St. Louis. “I’m not too worried, it’s my right hand.”

Miller will see a hand specialist in the next few days.

“I have some swelling, some soreness,” Miller said. “All things considered, better than I expected.”
