ARLINGTON, TEXAS (AP) - Derek Jeter is back in the lineup for the New York Yankees.

Jeter was listed as the leadoff hitter for Friday night’s game at the Texas Rangers.

Jeter missed Thursday’s game against Detroit, a day after leaving a game with a right hip problem. Manager Joe Girardi described it then as day-to-day, and Jeter said it was nothing serious.

While Jeter was back, Nick Swisher was scratched from the original lineup Friday because of illness.
