Derek Jeter 3K to debut a week from tonight on HBO

FROM KEITH GROLLER

HBO's documentary on Derek Jeter's quest for 3,000 hits will debut a week from tonight. HBO generally does these things very well. So does Major League Baseball Productions.

Here's the lead graph from a release HBO sent out:

New York, NY --- “DEREK JETER 3K,” the hour-long documentary special from HBO and Major League Baseball Productions, will premiere Thursday, July 28th at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO. The special chronicles New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter’s dramatic quest for his 3,000th career hit, which he accomplished versus the Tampa Bay Rays with a remarkable five-for-five performance on July 9th at Yankee Stadium. “DEREK JETER 3K” will take viewers behind the scenes as Jeter made his run at the 3,000-hit milestone, becoming the first player to do it in a Yankees uniform.
