More on Derek Jeter
Description from Wikipedia:
Derek Sanderson Jeter (pronounced: /ˈdʒiːtər/; born June 26, 1974) is a Major League Baseball (MLB) shortstop who has played his entire MLB career with the New York Yankees. He is the Yankees' current team captain. Jeter's presence in the Yankees' lineup, highlighted by his hitting prowess, played an instrumental role in the team's late 1990s dynasty, which won four World Series championships.
Jeter debuted in the Major Leagues in 1995, and the following year, he won the Rookie of the Year Award and helped the Yankees win a World Series title. Jeter would lead the Yankees to championships in 1998, 1999, and 2000, as well. In 2000, Jeter became the only player to win both the All-Star Game MVP Award and the World Series MVP Award in the same year. He has been selected as an All-Star ten times, and he has won the Silver Slugger and Gold Glove awards on three occasions. He is considered a consummate professional, by teammates and opponents alike.
Jeter is considered to be one of the best-hitting shortstops in baseball history. He is the all-time hits leader among shortstops and his .316 career batting average through the 2008 season ranks as the fifth-highest among active players. He has been among the American League leaders in hits and runs scored for the past ten years. In 2009, Jeter became the 74th player in MLB history to reach 2,600 hits, and on September 11, 2009, he recorded his 2,722nd hit as a Yankee, passing Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig for most hits by a Yankees player.
