By the way, I'm not the only one who noticed Jeter's tendency to be the last out this season. I opened the Daily News this morning to find the following sidebar:
SWINGIN' IN THE RAIN
JUNE 1: Jeter strikes out swinging against Mike MacDougal with Robinson Cano on second to end Yanks' chances in 3-1 loss to Royals. It marks the second loss of three-game sweep in Kansas City and fourth loss of a six-game skid.
JUNE 6: With Bernie Williams on second and Yanks down by one, Jeter lines out to right field in Bombers' 4-3 loss to Brewers in Milwaukee.
JUNE 7: The next night, Yankees enter ninth down 2-0. Bernie Williams drives in Jorge Posada to make it 2-1. With Robinson Cano on third, Jeter grounds out to reliever Derrick Turnbow to end rally, and game.
JUNE 20: With Bombers down to D-Rays, 5-4, on Monday night, Jeter grounds out to short to end contest, and six-game winning streak.
YESTERDAY: With Yanks down, 5-3, and two out, Robinson Cano triples and up comes Jeter. He goes down swinging to Tampa Bay's Danys Baez to end comeback attempt and short-lived joy from Tuesday night's 20-11 comeback victory.
Heh. guess I gave him too much credit when I said it was only three times (admittedly, I said it was three K's, and only two of the FIVE examples above are strike outs, but let's not split hairs here). And, of course, that's only June.

I even kind of like him but don't tell anyone.
