Jeter: Home run for hit # 3000, only other guy to do that is Boggs.
5-5, only other guy to get 5 hits same game as hit # 3000 is Biggio.
You can hate the Yanks, I don't blame you. You can call him over paid, it's true. But Derek Jeter knows how to get the job done. No denying it.
Also, since the hit was a home run, there were worries about the ball getting back to him. A 23 y/o guy caught it and immediately turned it over. He got potential World series tickets, other minor things and the opportunity to present Jeter the ball. I'd held out for Minka Kelly nude pics and a pair of her soiled panties.
