When Derek Jeter got his 2000th hit on Friday night against the Kansas City Royals at Yankee Stadium, did the hometown fans chant: "2000", "2000", "2000" ????
In some ways I'm sorry Jeter didn't do it at Fenway on Wednesday night.
I think the fans at Fenway would have had enough respect for the game and the achievement to have applauded Jeter had he hit his 2000th in Boston. There would have doubtless been the knucklehead fans who would have tried to boo, but 2000 hits is no small deal, whoever reaches it - and at least Jeter plays hard and plays without any artificial enhancement.
The guy still looks like a human bobblehead doll however.

& the "Hit"was a 4' roler thrown away by the KC Catcher.
It was Major League "CHEAP."
