In his 20th and final MLB season, shortstop Derek Jeter, who has played for no team but the New York Yankees, has some milestones in his sights.

Jeter, who turned 40 last week, is baseball's active hits leader (3,396, and counting) by a considerable margin, has an outside shot at 3,500, and, barring injury, should finish his career sixth on the all-time list. (Cap Anson, who currently occupies that spot, had 3,435.)

But Jeter's legacy in the league as a whole, while significant, will never match the place he occupies in Yankees lore. Already far and away the franchise's leader in plate appearances, hits, and stolen bases, Jeter moved closer on Tuesday to claiming another piece of Yanks history, tying Lou Gehrig's record with his 534th double in Yankees pinstripes.
