 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter started against Tampa Bay Monday night, his first appearance since leaving a game on April 7 due to a strained left quadriceps muscle.
"Obviously I'm happy to be playing again," Jeter said. "I hope everything is all right. I don't see any reason it's not going to be."
Jeter was slotted in his usual No. 2 spot in the batting order and grounded out in his first at-bat, following Johnny Damon's leadoff homer.
