First it was Alex Rodriguez of Las Vegas and then it was Marietta's Derek Jeter, but both players passed Manny Ramirez for the all-time lead DMBL at-bats, during the first week of the 2012 campaign.
Ramirez was No. 1 with an even 8,800 at-bats and may eventually add to his total as he sits out 2012 to make a comeback in 2013. After Saturday's matchups, A-Rod and Jeter now rank 1-2, with 8,812 and 8,804 at-bats. The duo also started the season 1-2 in all-time games played, with Jeter at 2,267 and A-Rod at 2,260. Newark's Chipper Jones wasn't far behind at 2,243.
Jeter also looks to make history early this season, needing just 9 hits to surpass Barry Bonds as the all-time hits leader, with 2,575. He enters Sunday's doubleheaders with 4 hits on the year, sitting on 2,570.
