NEW YORK, Nov. 28 (UPI) -- Andy Pettitte, who returned to the New York Yankees last season after a brief retirement, will stay with the club for at least one more year, the team said.

The Yankees announced Wednesday Pettitte had agreed to a contract for the 2013 campaign. He will reportedly earn $12 million.

Pettitte made 12 starts during 2012 with a 5-4 record and a 2.87 earned run average. He missed almost three months of the season with a fractured left ankle.
