Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish was reinstated from the 15-day injured list and made his season debut in Thursday's 7-2 win over the New York Yankees.

Bradish allowed one run in 4 2/3 innings in his first start after beginning the season on the injured list with a UCL strain.

Bradish threw 51 of 84 pitches for strikes in his return from a rehab assignment that ended more quickly than some expected. He escaped a bases-loaded, two-out jam in the first and left with runners on the corners in the fifth before Keegan Akin (1-0) induced Anthony Rizzo into a popout to short.

Bradish, 27, finished fourth in the American League Cy Young Award voting last season after posting a 12-7 record with a 2.83 ERA in 30 starts. He recorded 168 strikeouts in 168 2/3 innings.

Bradish owns a 16-14 record and a 3.68 ERA in 53 career starts since making his debut with the Orioles in 2022.

The Orioles designated right-hander Yohan Ramirez for assignment to make room for Bradish. Ramirez, who turns 29 on Monday, is 0-1 with an 8.74 ERA in eight appearances this season with the New York Mets and Orioles.
