Just to put it out there it's not that I am a so called Jeterite or something. I was brought up to appreciate the rare things in life, the history, the tradition and to pay attention to those special players. My grandfather was the Yankee fan in a family of Met fans. He used to tell stories of Joe D, Mantle, Ruth, Lou and all the other greats. I want to be able to tell my grand kids that I never missed a Jeter at bat. That I didnt miss a game since 1995. To me that is something special. To watch this small twiggy kid turn into one of the greatest (career) Yankees of all time was amazing. I hated him when he first came up (before I watched him play) because I wanted what he had. I dreamed of being the starting SS of the Yankees also, but as we can see it never happend lmao. One can dream. Once I saw the way he played I knew he was going to be a special player!

AussieYank Posts: 1,033	CHICAGO -- With four singles and a double at U.S. Cellular Field on Wednesday night, Derek Jeter continued his march up the all-time hits list. The Yankees' captain reached on a bunt single in the first inning, then knocked a base hit to right field in the second, giving him 3,024 career hits to move him past Hall of Famer Lou Brock for sole possession of 23rd place on the all-time list. He then singled in two runs during the Yankees' seven-run third inning outburst and singled yet again in the fifth. After lining out to first in the seventh, he doubled and scored in the eighth for his second five-hit game of the season and the fourth of his career. GO JETES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
