What do you call a groundball to Jeter's left?

A single!
But seriously... having ARod to his right allows him to cheat quite a bit to his left... making groundballs to his left a bit less common that for the average shortstop.

I would bet you would stilll be happy to have him on the Diamondbacks.
When I was younger, I used to think that the world was doing it to me and that the world owes me some thing…When you're a teeny bopper, that's what you think. I'm 40 now, I don't think that anymore, because I found out it doesn't f--king work. One has to go through that. For the people who even bother to go through that, most assholes just accept what it is anyway and get on with it." - John Lennon

My wife went to high school with him and they shared a couple of classes. He was a senior and she was a freshman.
