Broken branch - help!

16 years ago

I purchased a few fruit trees this spring for my new house  two apple and one 4-in-1 pear tree. Not knowing what to look for, I purchased the pear tree from Home Depot. A few of the branches are at angles ~30 degrees.

Anyways, I am in the process of trying to correct the branch angles and I managed to break one of the branches. It is cracked about 2/3 of the way through and the crack then extends toward the trunk

I fit the ends together as best as I could, but is there any way to save this branch and keep the tree from becoming a 3-in-1?
