The Captain Reaches 3000

Congrats to Derek Jeter who reached the 3000 hit milestone today (first to do so in a Yankees uniform). I'm a huge Yankees fan and DJ has been one of my favorites to watch.

Only Derek could go 5-5 with the game winning hit on the day he hits a home run for number 3,000. And shout out to the fan who gave him the ball back like a true gentleman.
People will continue to understate the value of Derek Jeter until he retires. It will be very similar to Patrick Ewing who was pushed out of town and then missed terribly for the next decade. Jeter will retire a Yankee without a doubt, and by the time I have kids old enough to understand baseball history, he will be a top 5 Yankee of all time.

I HATE the Yankees like crazy, almost up there with Texas, but man do I respect Derek Jeter. Much like Brett Favre, he is a man that makes their sport great.

Surprisingly most Red Sux fans share that sentiment. Ive grown up in NY & the area and always been a fan of Derek's, guy is pure class and everyone roots for him or admires even those who hate his uniform. And 3,000 hits is impressive but his female hit list may be more impressive
