Red Sox’s Jeter Downs, who’s named after Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, hit his first career homer at Yankee Stadium
It’s been nearly 10 years since MLB fans heard the name “Jeter” after a booming home run at Yankee Stadium. That is, until Red Sox shortstop Jeter Downs stepped up to the plate on Sunday.
Downs, who’s famously named after Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, recorded his first career home run after belting an 88 mph slider from Yankees ace Gerrit Cole a whopping 363 feet over the left-field wall. Downs’ two-run moonshot came in the third inning and drove in Jackie Bradley Jr. to give Boston its first runs of the game and narrow the deficit, 3–2.
The rookie infielder, appearing in only his ninth game, notched his first homer just eight days after he recorded his first career hit against the Yankees on July 9.
