It was a banner day for Derek Jeter, who collected his 2500th hit in the New York (A) 6-5 win over Anaheim. Jeter went 1-5 in the game as both Yankees and Angels fans cheered Jeter, when he reached base after his historic hit.

"It feels great to get #2500," Jeter said afterward, "especially since we won the game."
