NEW YORK - George Lombard Jr. is not in Sunday's Yankees lineup, but the hope is that he's day-to-day with right knee inflammation.
The rookie shortstop exited Saturday's second game of a doubleheader after three innings, having twisted awkwardly on a check swing in his first at-bat.
An MRI taken late Saturday showed no structural damage. Lombard wasn't sure if he'd be an available player Sunday.
Here is the Yankees' lineup Sunday:
Paul Goldschmidt, 1B
