New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter broke a record that stood for 72 years on Friday, surpassing Lou Gehrig to lead the Yankees in all-time hits. With a single past first, Jeter broke the record with his 2,722nd base hit, sparking a massive ovation from the home crowd and more than two minutes of chants.
