Yankees reinstate reliever Ian Hamilton from injured list

The New York Yankees reinstated reliever Ian Hamilton from the 15-day injured list on Wednesday.

The 28-year-old right-hander has been sidelined since mid-May with a right groin strain.

Hamilton is 1-1 with one save and a 1.23 ERA in 16 appearances out of the bullpen this season.

The Yankees optioned right-hander Jhony Brito to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move.

Brito allowed two runs on four hits in 5 2/3 innings in New York's 2-1 loss at Oakland on Tuesday night.

Brito, 25, made his MLB debut on April 2 and is 4-4 with a 4.70 ERA in 12 games (11 starts) this season.
