New York Yankees star Derek Jeter earned yet another accolade Saturday as he moved into sixth place on MLB's all-time hits list with 3,431.

According to the Yanks' official Twitter account, the captain broke a tie with legendary Pittsburgh Pirates shortstop and Hall of Famer Honus Wagner:

Umpire Gary Cederstrom was making a call at third base on Friday night at Kauffman Stadium when he apparently hit a slick patch in the grass.

During the top of the second inning between the San Francisco Giants and Kansas City Royals, catcher Salvador Perez tried to throw out Joaquin Arias at third base. Cederstrom correctly called Arias safe, but then he started to slide and unintentionally did the splits.

Oakland Athletics outfielder Coco Crisp debuted an interesting hair style on Friday night.

During the team's game against the Minnesota Twins, Crisp was seen sporting his new 'do. Whatever happened back there might have worked, as he had a big bases-clearing triple early in the game to help give the Athletics a 6-5 win.

As New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter nears the end of his final season in Major League Baseball, he continues to move up the all-time hit list.

During Friday's game against the Cleveland Indians, Jeter got a base hit in the bottom of the first inning, giving him 3,430 career hits. With that single, he moves into a tie for sixth with Honus Wagner on the career hit list.

Yasiel Puig is arguably one of baseball's most intriguing players. It's a rare night when he doesn't do something that catches the eye.

Friday night's game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Milwaukee Brewers was no exception.

In the seventh inning, the outfielder checked his swing against Brewers pitcher Zach Duke which resulted in a broken bat.

Amazingly, the bat never made contact with the ball.
