Derek Jeter Hit Parade Continues

  With a single in yesterday's loss to Boston Derek Jeter got hit number 3,029. Jeter is now in 22nd place on the all time hit list and next up is Hall of Famer Rod Carew in 21st place with 3,053 hits. After Carew is Ricky Henderson in 20th place with 3,055 hits, and then is Astro great Craig Biggio in 19th place with 3,060 hits. 

  Jeter will have to wait until next year to catch the next player on the all time hit list, that being Dave Winfield in 18th place with 3,110 hits. If he stays healthy next year Jeter could make it up to around 13th place with about 3,200+ hits.
