NEW YORK (AP) — Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes was to play catch Sunday for the first time since going on the injured list with a flexor strain in his pitching elbow.

New York manager Aaron Boone said Cortes was to throw during the team’s workout ahead of Game 2 of the AL Division Series against Kansas City.

The 29-year-old Cortes has not pitched since Sept. 18 and it is unclear whether he will return to the mound this year.

Cortes is 9-10 with a 3.77 ERA.
