Like just about every aspect of Derek Jeter’s baseball career there is a serendipitous symmetry to his World Series career statistics, 50 of his 200 post-season hits came in the seven World Series he played in with the other 150 dispersed among the 16 ALDS and 10 ALCS he participated in. Jeter rapped out 11 hits in his final World Series against the Philadelphia Phillies in 2009, the last three coming in the Yankees Game Six clincher.
This Official Ball 2009 World Series Allan H. Selig stamped baseball was used in Game 1 of the Series at Yankee Stadium in which Jeter went 3-for-4 in the game.
