Derek Jeter Closes in on 3,000-Hit Club-- Part 2

Definitely some real major baseball history in this list and I am glad to have seen so many play at the old bark when I could still afford to go. Again, the ones with asterisks are the ones I saw in person.

16. Paul Waner 3,152
17. Robin Yount* 3,142-- One of those great True Blue Brew Club Brewers from 1982.
18. Tony Gwynn* 3,141
19. Dave Winfield* 3,110-- His foul ball against Britt Burns was the only-ever foul ball that I caught.
20. Craig Biggio 3,060-- Saw him on TV.
21. Ricky Henderson* 3,055-- I saw him break Maury Wills' stolen base record.
22. Rod Carew* 3.053
23. Lou Brock* 3,023-- Worst Cub trade-ever!!
24. Rafael Palmeiro-- 3.020-- One of those steroid boys.
25. Wade Boggs* 3,010
26. Roberto Clemente* 3,000-- You have to wonder how many he would have hit had he not died in that tragic plane crash.

Some Great Players on This List. --DaCoot
