Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter has resumed on-field work at the club's Spring Training complex in Tampa, Fla., The Associated Press reported on Tuesday.

Jeter, on the 15-day disabled list with a Grade 1 strain of his right calf, threw for the first time on Tuesday. His workout included long toss, indoor workouts and treatment.

"He's still doing treatment; he's doing some functional stuff," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said on Monday, expecting Jeter to resume baseball activities soon.The 36-year-old Jeter's first stint on the disabled list since 2003 has postponed his quest for career hit No. 3,000. He's six hits shy of becoming the 28th player to reach the milestone.

"I guess the timing wasn't very good," Jeter said after suffering the injury. "It's a little bit frustrating, but even if I wasn't at this point, I'd still be frustrated.

"I don't like not to play, whether it's going for 3,000 hits or 100 hits. It really doesn't make a difference to me. I'd rather be out there playing."

The Yankees' captain limped off the field following a fifth-inning flyout in New York's June 13 loss to the Indians, though he said he first felt the injury while jogging off the field after playing defense in the top of the inning.

Girardi said on Monday that the team will soon discuss if Jeter would require a Minor League rehab game before returning.

Jeter is eligible to come off the disabled list on June 29, when the Yankees are scheduled to play the middle game of a three-game Interleague series with the Brewers. From there, the Bronx Bombers will visit the Mets (July 1-3) and the Indians (July 4-6).

The AP also reported that right-handed starter Bartolo Colon, on the 15-day DL with a strained right hamstring, started a throwing program that included long toss on Tuesday.
