It was going to be virtually impossible for Derek Jeter to top his final game at Yankee Stadium, and it's unclear if the Yankees captain will get the chance because of an ailing hamstring.
Derek Jeter took the night off after his emotional final home game and watched a bunch of New York Yankees rookies beat a group of Boston Red Sox rookies 3-2 on Friday.

While fans, non fans, kids and adult everywhere celebrated the legendary Yankees' captain's last hit at Yankee stadium, let's take a look at the best reactions from friends of DJ, fellow athletes and other celebrates who took to Twitter to pay their RE2PECT to Number 2.
Derek Jeter still has three games left before retiring, but Cooperstown officials already are thinking about his likely induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
It may have gotten lost in the moment, but after Jeter won the game for the Bombers, the cameras caught his little nephew tipping his "Re2pect" cap.
The perfect script. Jeter capped his Yankee Stadium farewell with the game-winner in the bottom of the ninth, the latest — and perhaps last — storybook moment of his career.
I know some of you thought this week was overkill, from the anonymous trolls on Twitter to Keith Olbermann. But didn't last night just prove what we've been talking about?
Maybe it was the months of Jeter adulation, or the fact that Harvey grew up a Yankees fan. But the pitcher's presence didn't sit too well with some folks.

Let's go back in time, shall we? Here are seven of the most magical moments of Derek Jeter's illustrious career.
If you can cut through all the hot air and histrionics, Olbermann has a point. Or two. He made some of the very points that some of us have made for years.
So, how long will fans stand to chant that familiar "Der-ek Je-ter!" refrain? Bleacher Creature Bald Vinny's guess might surprise some.
He was a "young colt" with a "perfect SS body" and was a "top student" who planned to study medicine at the University of Michigan, too.
The highlight reel of Derek Jeter's career is pretty obvious. And it will take you about 30 seconds to find it on your phone. My memories are the ones that aren't on YouTube.
While some these days may celebrate Rosh Hashanah saying "L'shanah tova," in any language, universally, Yankees fans should wish each other a "Happy 2 Year!"

Derek Jeter and the New York Yankees were eliminated from postseason contention, wasting a three-run lead Thursday in a 9-5 loss to Nelson Cruz and the AL East champion Baltimore Orioles.
