Jeter will not play Friday against the Red Sox, Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News reports. Jeter's final game at Yankee Stadium couldn't have been scripted any better, as he went 2-for-5 with a double and three RBI, including the game-winner off the Orioles' Evan Meek. It seems he is emotionally drained, as Jeter will not even be an option to pinch-hit Friday, but he did say he will play in some capacity this weekend. Brendan Ryan will man short in Jeter's absence.
