Derek Jeter is back in the New York Yankees' lineup for the Subway Series finale, but Johnny Damon is still out because of a flu bug that's going around the clubhouse.
Jeter missed the previous two games against the Mets with a fever, headache and cough. The All-Star shortstop was set to return Sunday night, batting in his usual leadoff spot.
Melky Cabrera was in left field to replace Damon, who also sat out Saturday night's 5-0 win due to flu symptoms.
Manager Joe Girardi said Saturday that several Yankees have been sick lately, including Cabrera, pitchers Chien-Ming Wang and Phil Hughes, and second baseman Robinson Cano.
Wang was set to start Sunday night as the Yankees tried for a three-game sweep at Citi Field.
