Jeter Becomes All-Time Hits Leader

Derek Jeter wasted no time Saturday night in becoming the DMBL's all-time hits leader. Making it a Passover weekend to remember for the Marietta faithful, Jeter singled to left his first time at the plate, off Tim Hudson in the third inning. He eventually came around to score on a sacrifice fly to take a 2-0 lead, but the Mighty Men eventually fell at home to the Rowdy Roddy Pipers, 5-3 in 10 innings.

Jeter now has 2,576 hits, one better than Barry Bonds, who a few years ago had passed Roberto Alomar at 2,207 hits for the all-time mark.
