		Tech Entertainment Wall Street Markets Strategy Sports Lifestyle Politics International Video Latest Tuesday, May 8, 2012 SPORTS CHART OF THE DAY: Derek Jeter Is Closer To 4,000 Career Hits Than You May Think Derek Jeter is having a bit of a career resurgence. The 37-year old shortstop for the New York Yankees, who many wrote off a couple of years ago, is now leading the American League with .397 average and 48 hits. He now has 3,136 career hits, and all of a sudden, the idea of becoming just the third player with 4,000 hits doesn't seem so ridiculous. If Jeter collects 200 hits this season (he is on pace for 278), he will finish the season less than 100 hits behind Pete Rose at the same age. And while reaching Rose's all-time record of 4,256 is unlikely, Jeter would only need to average 178 hits per season for four more years to reach 4,000. Here is how Jeter's career compares to both Rose and Ty Cobb Data via Baseball-Reference.com Read » Also On Sports Page Today: The Most Ridiculous Photos Of Tom Brady We've Ever Seen Study: Former NFL Players Live Longer Than Average American Males A Grandmother Of One Of TO's Children Says Terrell Is 'Evil' Knicks Coach Says Jeremy Lin Won't Be Back Even If Series With Heat Is Miraculously Extended To Seven Games Advertisement SPORTS CHART OF THE DAY: The Cardinals And Rangers Are The Class Of Major League Baseball Early On SPORTS CHART OF THE DAY: Mariano Rivera Is Among The Best Pitchers, Starters Or Relievers SPORTS CHART OF THE DAY: A Saints Player Got A Much Harsher Penalty Than His Coach In Bountygate Share this: Facebook Twitter Digg Reddit StumbleUpon LinkedIn The email address for your subscription is: dwyld.kwu.jobhuntportal11@blogger.com Change Your Email Address | Unsubscribe | Subscribe | Subscribe to the Sports Page RSS Feed Business Insider. 257 Park Avenue South, New York, NY 10010 Terms of Service | Privacy Policy
