Gregorius plays for 1st time since TJ surgery

TAMPA, Fla. -- New York Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius played five innings of defense and went 2-for-4 with a walk Monday at extended spring training in his first game action since Tommy John surgery on Oct. 17.

"It was good," Gregorius said.

Playing against Detroit Tigers minor leaguers and in front of Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner, Gregorius singled twice and cleanly fielded three grounders but made an error on a throw to first base.

Gregorius is coming back from surgery to repair a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. He appears on track to start a minor league injury rehabilitation assignment in a week or two and rejoin the Yankees in late June.

Gregorius had an eventful first inning.

He charged to field a one-hopper and then made an accurate throw to first to retire the second batter.

After fouling a ball off his foot and breaking a bat on a pop foul, Gregorius drew a walk in the bottom half. He slid feetfirst into second base on a grounder, then slid headfirst into third on an infield single.

Gregorius hit .268 with a career-high 27 homers and 86 RBIs last season. He injured the elbow while making a throw from left field after a ball bounced off Fenway Park's Green Monster during Game 2 of the AL Division Series at Boston.

Outfielder Giancarlo Stanton was scheduled to start an injury rehab assignment for Class-A Tampa on Monday night. He has not played since March 31 because of a strained left biceps and then a strained left shoulder.

Shortstop Troy Tulowitzki, sidelined since April 3 by a strained left calf, resumed on-field batting practice Monday and continued taking grounders at shortstop and third base.
