Mr. 3000. Sure, it’s a bad movie starring the late Bernie Mac, but it’s also a new moniker for Derek Jeter, who became the 28th player in Major League history to notch 3,000 hits, courtesy of a home run Sunday against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Jeter, whose first career hit – a single -- came off of Seattle’s Tim Belcher on May 30, 1995, also has the distinction of being the first New York Yankee to reach the milestone.
As Derek Jeter returns from a recent calf injury chases his 3,000th hit, Major League Baseball Productions is following the New York Yankees captain for 'Derek Jeter 3K,' a one-hour special which will air on HBO within a few weeks after the slugger reaches the historic milestone.
He will be only the the 28th major leaguer -- and the very first Yankee -- to do so.
Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez both have multi-million dollar contracts and actress girlfriends.
The two Yankees also have something else in common: They are among the overrated baseball players in the game, according to a survey of 185 major league ballplayers by Sports Illustrated.
