July 2, 200421 yr Am I the only one here who thinks that play was merely just "good"? A-Rod says it's the greatest catch he's ever seen. I've seen better plays made in this year alone. Go East Coast bias!
July 2, 200421 yr Also after the catch he could have slowed down, i know he had momentum but he basically dove into the stands.
July 2, 200421 yr He did a Shaq dive.. too lazy to slow down so he goes head over heels into someone's nachos.
July 2, 200421 yr I also think it was just good. I don't think it was great, but the way Peter Gammons made it sound like the catch of the year. It is number 10 in top ten plays of the day
July 2, 200421 yr it he should have dove or rolled after making that catch. it was a good catch, nothing more.
July 3, 200421 yr pretty remarkable considering that he hurt himself, but I have seen better catches. Jeters play against the A's in the '01 ALDS was superior.

July 3, 200421 yr Frank Thomas slide seldom gets you called safe. doesnt change the fact he was still safe though
July 3, 200421 yr Best Catch Ever? give me a break, I'll take Pokey's catch earlier in the game over Jeters.
July 3, 200421 yr I don't know how many people watched the game, but you just saw him fly and i mean he turned the jets on guys. With the game on the line and a bloop single like that, it was agreat catch.
July 3, 200421 yr Not so much the catch he made but what he risked for his team with the game on the line.
July 4, 200421 yr LoL, now dont be bitter. Phew. Doug Mirabelli of all players might have just saved the season for the Red Sox. Well thats a relief. As for the catch, it was fantastic, but I still think that Pokey's was just as good if not better.
July 4, 200421 yr Um, am I the only one who doesn't think the catch was all too great? He jumped into the stands. He could have kept running along the fence IMHO. Ryan Freel's catch was much tougher, and Freel had to jump into the stands to catch the ball. Jeter is terribly overrated, and I would take our team leader, and SS, Jose Valentin, over him anyday.
July 4, 200421 yr Jeter is terribly overrated I was going to say earlier in th thread that Jeter's catch is as overrated as he is as a player, but I didn't want to be a dick about it..
