28. Derek Jeter (37) 2998 R Yes

Looks like 13 in person and 7 more on TV.

He still doesn't deserve to be an all-star.

He is an ALL-Star. Not a 2 or 3 month star.

Holy shit! On Saturday, July 9th, 2011, for the first time in my life, I 100% agree with something that sleeper posted.

I'm waiting for this fan voting shit to go the way of the dinosaurs. He doesn't really belong in the All-Star Game. He sure as hell doesn't deserve to be in the starting lineup.




Congrats on the 3000 hits.

Congrats to him on his 3000th. A great accomplishment.

He's a past All Star. But not close this year, and shouldn't have been voted to the team....let alone the starting line up.

Jeter did not start his 1st 3 or 4 all-star games, but waited his turn to be a starter like most young players wait their turns. Fans want to see who they want to see and eventually young players get their chance to shine, rarely do 1st time allstars start.

A total class act. Considering how all star voting goes in baseball, Imhave no problem with him being there. He's not producing all star numbers this year. But he's a future hall of famer and fans want to see that.

Says a Yankees fan living in Ohio.

I would agree if it wasn't for the fact that the game determines who has homefield in the world series. Right now, he is a middle of the road player.

CNN Fail

^^^Wow, Jeter had a MONSTER game if he got that!

What a day for Jeter, first he gets his 3,000th hit and as usual, I am sure he is seeing some super hottie naked.

Thanks for that wonderful insightful move Mr. Selig.

Minka Kelly, she's ok.

Lol at David Price tweet....hate to give up a 3000th, but at least it was to a classy guy.....my mom is probably happy

Very few people have gotten the *** that Jeter has in his lifetime. Probably a more select group than the 3,000 hit club.

The first hit Price gave up in his career was also a HR to Jeter.

Hey, I like the Reds also and everyone always said the Yankees farm team was in Ohio, so liked the Yankees

He was/is smart. New he was never in love with any of those girls so he never went and got married. I wish more athletes did that, if they plan on sleeping around and using their fame.

Like Shawn Kemp?

Yes. Except Shawn Kemp was an idiot cause he didnt ever wrap that dick he was slangin all around.

riders1;825925 wrote:Like Shawn Kemp?

Shawn Kemp would stick his stuff in anything that moves. Jeter beds supermodels, actresses, beauty pageants and I even think royalty.

What was Wilt Chamberlain's claimed number?

Over 20,000. Which is just not true. Its more than a girl a day from when he was 15 to when he made the statement.

Congratulations to Jeter. Class act all the way.
