"The Glamour Of It All! New York! America!"

Thanks to Charlie Chaplin for the title of this post.

From the AP:

Derek Jeter got to first base and heard the cheers. He had broken Lou Gehrig's record for hits at Yankee Stadium with his first-inning single, and the sellout crowd of 52,558 kept on applauding. Finally, after close to a minute, Jeter took off his helmet and waved it.

(The 85-year-old shrine closes Sunday, and this is one record that can never be broken.)

"I'm always a little uncomfortable in those situations," Jeter said.

Cheers, Cap'n...
