Congratulations Derek!

As most of you know, I am a die hard Yankee fan. And one of my favorite players is Derek Jeter. He is the epitome of class, on and off the field. Last night, he tied Lou Gehrig's record for most hits as a Yankee with 2,721. Just so you know, that's more hits than Don Mattingly had (2,153), than Yogi Berra had (2,148), than Joe DiMaggio had (2,214)and more than many other Yankee greats, like Mickey Mantle and Babe Ruth.

Last night's hits also landed him in a tie with Gehrig at #53 on the all time hits list. Yeah Jeter!
