Pettitte scratched again

Andy Pettitte, scheduled to pitch in a minor-league game today, was scratched due to back spasms, according to Peter Abraham.

Pettitte was forced to miss a start earlier this spring because of arm irritation. Abraham says the Yankees are hopeful Pettitte will make his start on Apr. 2 against Toronto.

Kei Igawa will also not make this afternoon's start in the Grapefruit League game.
