Yes, Derek Jeter of the New York Yankees got his 3,000th hit on July 9, 2011. He is the 28th player in the history of Baseball to accomplish the feat. He is also the only Yankee to have accomplished it, and the second player ever to do it with a home run.
Christian Lopez, a 23-year-old man, caught the home run ball and received signed memorabilia and Yankee season tickets for returning it to Jeter. He said he thought it was the right thing to do.
