TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — New York Yankees captain Derek Jeter is having an easy day in his return to shortstop.
Jeter didn’t get any chances in the field through the first three innings Wednesday night in an exhibition game against Philadelphia.
The 38-year-old Jeter hadn’t played the field since breaking his left ankle in the first game of the AL championship series last October.
Jeter was the designated hitter in two spring training games before taking on the Phillies.
