Jeter back in lineup; Damon still sidelined by flu

 
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. (link)
