2011 – Just 6 hits shy of joining the 3000 hit club, Derek Jeter must put his quest on hold as he exits today’s 1 – 0 Yankees loss to the Cleveland Indians with a sore right calf and goes on the disabled list. Jeter gets hit number 2994 with a 1st-inning single off Carlos Carrasco, but leaves in the 5th after feeling a strain while running to first base. Escaping a none-out, bases loaded jam in the 1st, Carrasco settles down by pitching seven scoreless innings for the win. The Indians’ lone run off A.J. Burnett comes in the 4th, courtesy of a triple by Michael Brantley followed by a single by Asdrubal Cabrera.
