Doing right . . .


Christian Lopez caught Derek Jeter's 3,000 hit.


Considering that Christian Lopez had just secured a priceless piece of Major League Baseball history, the Yankees had one question for him: What do you want?
Lopez barely thought about it before doing the unthinkable.
Instead of asking Jeter for millions of dollars or saying he was going to put the ball up for auction, Lopez decided he was just going to hand it over to one of his baseball heroes.
"Mr. Jeter deserved it. I'm not gonna take it away from him," Christian Lopez said. "Money's cool and all, but I'm 23 years old, I've got a lot of time to make that. It was never about the money, it was about the milestone."


As amazing as Jeter's performance was Saturday, Lopez's speaks just as eloquently.
