Derek Jeter, not one for media attention or one to shed a spotlight on himself, grabbed a wireless mic after Sunday's Stadium Finale, and thanked New York fans for their support:

In the final game ever played at Yankee Stadium, the Bronx Bombers sent out baseball's beloved cathedral in grand fashion. Andy Pettite pitched the best he has in a month, Jose Molina hit the last ever home run at the Stadium, and Mariano Rivera closed the door (despite a non save situation) in Mo-like fashion to end the ninth.

Derek Jeter was taken out of the game in the ninth inning to receive the proper sendoff the Yankee Captain was due. The entire Stadium erupted when Jeter came out to tip his hat, one last time.

Andy Pettite continued to struggle, earning his fourteenth loss of the season, giving up four runs in six innings. Bomber offense looked bleak again, with Giambi's 31st homer of the season highlighting an otherwise listless night.

Derek Jeter broke Lou Gehrig's Yankee Stadium hit mark, making him the most prolific hitter at the Ballpark in the Bronx.

The Yanks dropped two out of three to the AL West Cellar Dwellers and enter a crucial series against the Angels 10 games back in the East.

Things looked hopeful for the Bombers, who launched two home runs off the bats of Derek Jeter and Xavier Nady in the first two innings. Yankee offense promptly shut down, failing to score for the rest of the day.

Seattle's Jose Lopez hit two home runs as the Mariners cruised to a 5-2 victory.
