    someone posted odds a few weeks back on what type it would be and HR were the best odds by far, can't remember how high it was, but it was a good price

    triple was 12-1

    homer was 10-1

    at almost every book that offered the prop

    boy am i glad this is over with so i can stop hearing about it. 3,000 is no more valuable than 2,999 or 3,001. its stupid people get so worked up about. the only reason people think 3,000 is important is because we have 10 fingers

    I had a preminition that Jeter's 3000th was going to be a home run. People have been disrespecting him and he doesn't deserve it. He's such a clutch player in the post season. This is great. Time for an avatar change

    I was thinking the same thing, the ticket price doubled for the games until he hits 3000 but what a payout for lucky bustard who caught it might be more then a mil, also not a yankee fan ( redsox ), but good for Derek, that's what going out with a bang means, congrats.

    It's a milestone, why can't you grasp that concept, or do I have to explain to you about 300 wins being a milestone too.

    You still griping?
    Deal with it, or change the station to women's soccer.

    It's a historical milestone, like I said, deal with it.

    i am surprised he is only the 28th guy to get 3000 hits, seems like a bunch of guys in the last 20 years have gotten to this level

    you prove my point by using 300 as a milestone. it only matters because we have 10 fingers otherwise it is not significant.

    Nothing but respect for Derek Jeter. Guy showed up to play baseball every game for his whole career. 5 rings, 3000 hits, playing in NY, the term "winning" should have been reserved for him.

    that big fat, loud and obnoxious yankee fan (a typical new yorker) is a fuckin RETARD for just giving that ball back to jeter....even if he got an autograph or whatever, **** that.....i'd tell jeter if he wants it then pay me, as it's going to the highest bidder

    the dbag can afford 100k or the supposed 250k that the ball could fetch in a heartbeat

    In a world where greed and selfishness prevail most of the time, that this guy caught Jeter's ball and gave it back is very fitting. Jeter is a class act and this guy must be as well.

    yeah, jeter should have no problem paying 100k for the ball since he is getting overpaid by 20 million or so

    Hate the Yankees, but have a lot of respect for Jeter and the way he plays the game. I'm happy to see him get his 3,000th hit, lock for the HOF
