Yankees' Andrew Miller to pitch with broken bone in other wrist

New York Yankees left-hander Andrew Miller reportedly has been cleared to pitch with a broken bone in his non-throwing right wrist.

According to the YES Network's Jack Curry, a hand specialist in Miami gave Miller the OK on Friday to pitch without surgery.

Dr. Patrick Owens, who examined Jason Pierre-Paul last summer after the New York Giants defensive end injured his hand in a fireworks accident, told Miller that his injury would heal on its own and should not affect his ability to pitch, according to the YES Network.

Miller suffered a fractured pisiform bone in the heel of his right hand after being struck by a line drive during a spring training game in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
