It just makes what Jeter has done in NY even more amazing as (barring an injury) he will become the 1st Yankee to join the 3,000 hit club - and he will do it as a 'pure' Yankee... rookie year and 1st hit to 3,000 hit...

If Captain Lou didnt get sick, he would have easily had 3,000 hits, and probably still have the record right now, and for quite some time.

Re: Baseball Question on Jeopardy tonight???

In case I worded that poorly...

What former player was already a member of the 3000 hit club when he donned Yankees Pinstripes?

Hints & Trivia -

NO Yankee has EVER had 3,000 hits (a few players who are 3,000 hit club members did play for the Yanks during their careers)

ONLY one person (the answer to the question) has ever worn Yankees Pinstripes as a member of the 3,000 hit club - in other words he had 3,000 hits before joining the Yankees.

This person had a total of 1 hit in 7 ab over 10 games over 2 seasons with the Yankees.

Re: Baseball Question on Jeopardy tonight???

Here's a better question... and I gave this question - and the answer - in another post here about 2-3 weeks ago or so...

Who is the ONLY player to be an CURRENT Member of the 3,000 hit club when he was wearing Yankees Pinstripes?

I went through every team I could think of and yelled out "The Philadelphia Phillies!" while my wife was sleeping and I get hit in the face with a pillow. I'm with Sean Connery. Damn you Alex Trabek
