The two things that stand out to me in that vid is Jorge was the first person to greet him, and Johnny D looked as if he really wanted to cross the infield and congratulate him too..

What a great way to get number 3,000. I've always been a fan of Jeter.

I'd be a fan too if he wasn't a Yankee.

5 for 5 today.

Only the 2nd to hit a homer for number 3000. Wade Boggs was the first.

Boggs doesn't count.

He played for Boston before he came to NY.

And got number 3000 as a Devil Ray.

I'm a Red Sox fan and can appreciate what Jeter has accomplished.

I think anyone who loves the game of baseball, whether Yankee fan or Yankee hater, can appreciate and admire Jeter. He plays the game with style, class and integrity, like the ballplayers of a lost generation. He has done it the right way, his entire career, both on and off the field Way to go Jeter

I noticed that too--I think Damon prompted the Rays out of their dugout to give Jeter the standing ovation

10 years in Boston, four or five in NY, and two in Tampa.

He's more of a Red Sock than anything.

The prize ball, one of the specially marked ones put in play for the occasion once Jeter got to 2,999 hits, disappeared into a cluster of fans a few rows beyond the wall. Christian Lopez of Highland Mills, N.Y., sitting in Section 236, emerged with the valuable memento after it bounced off his father's hand.

The 23-year-old former football player from St. Lawrence University gladly gave the ball back to Jeter, saying it never occurred to him to keep it. The Yankees rewarded him with four tickets to every game for the rest of the year, and memorabilia autographed by Jeter - three bats, three balls and two jerseys.

``Mr. Jeter deserved it,'' Lopez said. ``It's all his.''
