It's funny to think of Derek Jeter batting 9th in any batting order. He was a rookie in 96, but then again, just look at the lineup for that game. My god, I forgot just how powerful a lineup that Yankee Dynasty had.
Also of note, 3 of the 5 up there (Jeter, Vizcaino, Alicea) all needed extra innings to get their hits
