It couldn’t happen to a better Yankee. From Ruth to Gehrig to DiMaggio to Berra to Mantle to Mattingly to Jeter. Derek has been the face of the New York Yankees for the past 17 seasons. It’s hard to imagine a franchise like the New York Yankees, does not have a player in the 3,000 hits club. We as fans and Yankee Universe members are proud of Derek’s newest achievement. Congratulations to Derek Jeter who is the newest member of the 3,000 hits club.

From,

Mr October
