Why do the New York Yankees sit in the visiting team dug out on the first base line when they are home at Yankee Stadium?
Asked by Wiki User
Because most major league teams, minor league, college and high school teams are on the first base side if they are the home team!! Some teams are on the third base side due to maybe superstition.. that being the Cubs are on the first base line due to tradition.

What was Derek Jeter's first jersey number as a professional?
Asked by Wiki User
There are two numbers you could reasonably say were Derek Jeter's first "professional" number.
The first time Jeter technically became a professional was in 1992, when the New York Yankees picked him sixth overall in the draft. Like most new players, however, he did not go directly to the major leagues; the Yankees first placed him in their minor league system. It's hard to determine the first jersey number he wore in the minors, since far less attention is payed to the minor leagues than the majors. Fortunately, there were several collectible "rookie edition" baseball cards made of Jeter; from pictures of these, it would be a reasonably good guess to say that Jeter's first minor league number was "13". A link to a picture of one of these cards is included in the related links.
Jeter's first major league number is much easier to find; he's used the same one for his entire major league career. Jeter's first major league number was "2".
