NEW YORK, N. AJ McCarron Bills Jersey .Y. - The perfect script. Derek Jeter capped his Yankee Stadium farewell with a game-winning single in the bottom of the ninth inning, the latest a€” and perhaps last a€” storybook moment of his charmed and illustrious career, to give New York a 6-5 victory Thursday night over the Baltimore Orioles. Serenaded with adoring chants that echoed through the Bronx night, Jeter tipped his cap several times and drove in three runs. He launched an early RBI double off the left-centre wall and saved the best for last, a sharp, opposite-field single to right that knocked in the winner. It was above and beyond anything that Ive ever dreamt of, Jeter said. This was a lot of fun. During the raucous celebration that followed, Jeter said hes made his final appearance at shortstop, but hell likely play in some capacity this weekend at Boston. It appeared his tiebreaking grounder in the seventh would be the swing that sent the Yankees to a win when they built a 5-2 cushion against the AL East champions. Not bad a€” but not Jeter. Nope, hes always had a flair for the most electrifying kind of drama, and this night was destined to be no different. As if it was planned all along, closer David Robertson (4-5) gave up a two-run homer in the top of the ninth to Adam Jones and a tying shot to Steve Pearce with two outs. That only set the stage for Jeter one more time. Its like a movie, teammate Chase Headley said. You look up there and you see whos hitting third and youre like, really? This cant happen, can it? Youre surprised but youre not surprised. Jose Pirela hit a leadoff single against Evan Meek (0-4) in the bottom of the ninth before Brett Gardner sacrificed. Jeter lined the next pitch through a huge hole on the right side, and pinch-runner Antoan Richardson slid home ahead of Nick Markakis throw. An elated Jeter jumped and raised both arms between first and second. Yankees players rushed out to engulf him as former teammates such as Jorge Posada, Mariano Rivera, Bernie Williams, Andy Pettitte, Tino Martinez and Hall of Fame manager Joe Torre lined up near the New York dugout waiting to greet the retiring captain. Sort of an out-of-body experience, Jeter said. He went back out to shortstop, crouched down at the edge of the outfield grass and bounced on his toes a couple of times before rejoining the group. Jeter tipped his cap again and was doused over the head with a sports drink by Gardner and CC Sabathia. To be honest with you, I dont know how I played this game, said Jeter, who acknowledged getting choked up several times throughout the day a€” usually somewhere he could be alone. I went up my first at-bat, I forgot my elbow guard. I was throwing balls away. I was giving signs to (Stephen) Drew at second base and theres no one on base, so I was all messed up. The 40-year-old Jeter made a throwing error in the second, then started a difficult double play an inning later. At one point on the basepaths, he appeared to lose track of how many outs there were. But all that became merely a footnote when Jeter produced another indelible moment to go with his famous dive into the stands and his backhand flip to the plate and his home run for hit No. 3,000. Mr. November. Subway Series MVP. Jeffrey Maier. The list goes on and on. I dont think theres a more fitting way to end, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. In one twist that hardly fit, however, Jeters home finale was the only game he ever played at Yankee Stadium with his team already knocked out of the playoff race. Jeter ended last season on the disabled list, so the only other time in his 20-year career (2,745 regular-season games) that he appeared in a game with New York already out of post-season contention was in Boston on Sept. 26, 2008. His signature is winning. What other accolade can you pick? said Orioles skipper Buck Showalter, who was Jeters first manager when the youngster broke into the big leagues in May 1995. Take a good look, because there are not going to be many like this come your way again. Heavy rain soaked the city all afternoon, but the sky cleared in the evening and the tarp was removed from the infield an hour before the first pitch. A rainbow, in fact, appeared over the stadium. The game began right on time, but it didnt start well for the Yankees. Roll call by the Bleacher Creatures was interrupted just as they got to a roaring chant of De-rek Je-ter! Markakis hit a leadoff homer, awkwardly silencing a sellout crowd of 48,613 that included rap star Jay-Z and other famous faces. Alejandro De Aza followed with another long ball to right, the first time Baltimore had started a game with consecutive homers since hitting three in a row against Texas on May 10, 2012. Jeter, however, hit an RBI double in the first against rookie Kevin Gausman, who was 4 years old when Jeter made his major league debut. The ball banged off the left-centre wall a€” just missing a home run by a couple of feet. I went behind home plate to cover and I swear I felt the entire place shaking, Gausman said. Jeter scored on a grounder, and the fans were back into it. Hours later, he was asked to reflect on his entire career in pinstripes. I can honestly say I dont think anyone played harder, he said. I dont. TRAINERS ROOM Orioles: Pearce (right wrist) made his first start since Friday. Yankees: Sabathia (right knee surgery) said hes been playing catch and feels good. He said hes sure hell be ready to pitch in spring training next March. UP NEXT Orioles: RHP Chris Tillman (13-5) gets the ball Friday night in Toronto, a tuneup for his scheduled start in Game 1 of the playoffs next Thursday at Camden Yards. Yankees: Jeter is a .265 career hitter with 14 homers in 142 games at Fenway Park.

Fair didnt have many chances to be the main option for Syracuse last season.ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Oakland Raiders rookie quarterback Matt McGloin could be without his top receiver when he makes his second NFL start Sunday against Tennessee. Denarius Moore missed his second straight day of practice with a shoulder injury he suffered during last weeks win over Houston. If hes unable to go, it would weaken an already thin receiving corps. "Several guys need to step up," Raiders coach Dennis Allen said Thursday. "Its just like everything else weve had to deal with as far as injuries are concerned. Next man up. Somebodys going to have to come out and perform." Only two of Oaklands wide receivers have caught more than 10 passes this season. Moore, who has not missed a start since being sidelined with a hamstring injury for the season opener in 2012, is one of them. The third-year wide receiver leads the Raiders in catches, receiving yardage and touchdowns this season. He is the only Oakland player to have a 100-yard game this season and was attempting to become the first Oakland wide receiver to eclipse the 1,000-yard mark since Randy Moss in 2005. Moore might still get there but will have to do it in fewer than 16 games if he misses the Titans game. "Denarius has been really our leading receiver so itll have an effect," Allen said. "Weve got several quality wide receivers. All those guys have been a factor for us and they need to continue to be a factor for us." McGloin, who passed for three touchdowns without an interception in last weeks 28-23 win over the Texans, didnt seem too concerned. Since replacing Terrelle Pryor as the Raiders starter, the former walk-on at Penn State said hes developed a pretty good rapport with his receivers. "We talkk all the time," McGloin said. Taron Johnson Jersey. "My lockers right next to Rod (Streater) and a lot of the wideouts, so were constantly talking about the game and were constantly having fun. The communication has never been an issue." One option to replace Moore would be Andre Holmes, who sat out the first four games of the year serving an NFL suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance. Moore, however, has caught just one pass in the four games since being added to the 53-man roster. Seventh-round draft pick Brice Butler could also see increased playing time against Tennessee. The rookie caught at least one pass in the first six games of the regular season before making a pair of costly drops against Pittsburgh on Oct. 27. Hes played sparingly since. Jacoby Ford opened the season third on the depth chart but has also had problems hanging onto the ball and has steadily seen his playing time decrease. He has just 10 catches for the year and has played fewer than 14 snaps in two of Oaklands past four games. The news was a little more encouraging for Pryor, who started the Raiders first nine games before suffering a knee injury and being replaced by McGloin. Pryor remains limited in practice but is showing signs of improvement. "I thought he moved around well," Allen said. "Well continue to monitor him throughout the week and see how hes feeling at the end of the week. Hopefully hes healthy enough to go, and if he does, then hell be up on Sunday." Notes: Defensive end Jason Hunter, who has two sacks, has not practiced this week because of a foot injury. Running back Darren McFadden and safety Tyvon Branch were also held out.
