Bombers bits

• Derek Jeter had more simulated at-bats on Monday at the Yankees' facility in Tampa, Fla., according to manager Joe Girardi. Francisco Cervelli also took batting practice and Curtis Granderson threw in the outfield.

• Even with the Yankees lacking both Mark Teixeira and Kevin Youkilis, Girardi said that there has been no discussion of having Rodriguez or Jeter take any reps at first base during their Minor League rehabilitation assignments.

• On this date in 1990, the Yankees made three errors behind Andy Hawkins in the eighth inning, keeping his no-hitter intact but leading to four unearned runs as the White Sox posted a 4-0 victory. Major League Baseball removed Hawkins' no-hitter designation in 1991, instituting a rule requiring at least nine innings to have been pitched in a no-hitter.
