Protected in the batting order? Derek Jeter was a leadoff hitter LOL! In a batting order the 5 protects the 4 and the 4 protects the 3. You should never be allowed to comment on anything baseball related ever again.lol agree 100%..Jeter was the real deal, along with Ken Griffey Jr...and Barry Bonds...I think Barry was the greatest baseball player of all time....even before the home run steroid controversy...
