Pregame tidbits from Yankee Stadium

NEW YORK -- Some quick news bites from Yankee Stadium . . .

-- Josh Beckett will throw a five-inning simulated game in the bullpen tomorrow and fully expects to make his next start Tuesday against the Indians at Fenway Park.

-- Yogi Berra visited the Red Sox clubhouse and signed balls for Coco Crisp and Javy Lopez. ''He always makes a point of coming in to say hello,'' said Terry Francona. ''That's pretty awesome for me.''

-- Mike Timlin played catch on the side and is scheduled for another mound session later this week. He threw off a mound yesterday for the first time since going on the disabled list May 3 because of shoulder tendinitis.
