Jeter needs to run a little faster

·1 min

Funny quote from Torii Hunter on throwing out Derek Jeter at the plate in the third inning after Gary Sheffield’s single:

“He hit the ball so hard I had plenty of time to make the throw,” Hunter said. “When he hits a ball, Jeter needs to run a little faster.” (Link)

Translated: “Sheffield, you hit well. Jeter, you’re dogging it.” Okay, maybe that’s not what he meant, but heck, I like the implications…
