Playing around on FanGraphs, I came across some interesting stats on Jeter.

His Groundball % is 74%. 27% of his flyballs are homeruns. And only 11% of his hits are line drives. The next closest to Jeter in GB% is more than 10% away. His GB/FB ratio is 4.91 where the next closest is 3.00.

Makes you wonder if Jeter has changed his hitting philosophy or not.

That was at the Met at some point, I remember. I don't recall if it's in the collection there or if it was on loan for a show though.
