As usual Jeter steps up big and he hammered that ball.
What an awesome way to do it.

The only other one to do it with a home run, was Boggs in a Rays uni, hit it to right field at the Trop. If memory serves that's the only real milestone I have ever seen in person, other than a few ML debuts and first hits and such.
He's 4 for 4
Have a day Derek
Damon hits # 2,664 to put him in 68th place on the hit list ahead of Nellie Fox.
Other milestones last night…
Nick Markakis hit his 1,000th.
Miguel Cabrera hit his 1,500th.
Pujols got his 2,000 hit!
Micheal Young now has 2,000 hits, first Ranger to do that!
yea, imagine they were trying to deal him before the year. dude just hits... good ball player.
Got sidetracked with the Zambrano news and forgot to post......one of the bombs Sabathia gave up last night was Longoria's 100th career homer. Report is since it went into the bull pen it got thrown to a fan so no hope of him getting it.
600 for THOME!! YOO HOO!!!!
So glad ESPN cut in to show baseball history
Thome got the ball back, too. He'll decide what to do with it. I hope he keeps it. Its another in a long line of trophies he has earned in his career.
