Jeter: It's Starting To Hit Me
21st September, 2008 - 8:34 pm
MLB.com - Derek Jeter admitted that driving to Sunday night's game, the final game at Yankee Stadium, the reality of it all began to hit him, according to MLB.com.

"Just driving in, I think it really starts to hit you," Jeter said. "This is the last time I'm driving to Yankee Stadium to play a game."

Jeter overtook Lou Gehrig this week for the most hits ever at the Stadium.

"The last couple of days, I've been looking around," Jeter said. "It's pretty special. Those are the moments that are going to stick with you forever."

"This is a special place. I've been here for parts of 14 years. I still can't envision myself going over to the new stadium yet. This place is pretty comfortable playing here. It's an old stadium, but it's in pretty good condition. I just enjoy coming here every day. I'm going to miss it." [READ]
