Wow: USF's Sanford plunks Jeter
Here's a fun development: USF starter Shawn Sanford, after getting a line-drive out from Johnny Damon, has hit Yankees star Derek Jeter in the left elbow in the bottom of the first inning.
Sanford threw four pitches to Jeter, with one taken for a ball and two fouled back. Bobby Abreu followed with a single to rightfield, and Alex Rodriguez brought Jeter home with a sacrifice fly to right.


Times sportswriter Greg Auman, who covers USF, will post news and thoughts on the Bulletin and we invite your participation in the comments area.
Jeter deserved it.

So funny.
The kid must have been trembling pitching to Jeter.. So cool though.
Has to be a moment to remember for these kids.
What a recruiting tool also
