The Yankees have reinstated infielder Jose Pirela from the 15-day DL and sent infielder Gregorio Petit to the 15-day DL with a right hand contusion, the team announced.

Pirela has been on the disabled list since the beginning of the season after crashing into the outfield wall in spring training. He is in the starting lineup Wednesday, batting ninth.

Petit suffered his injury in Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays when he was hit in the hand by a pitch. Petit is hitting .200 with five RBI in 35 at-bats this season.
