Another year, another New York Yankees legend going around to major league ballpark and collecting free gifts.
This year it is Derek Jeter and the first stop was Houston where the Astors gave him a pair of cowboy boots, a hat and a set of golf clubs.

And because of the ties between both organizations, Andy Pettitte was on hand to throw out the first pitch.

Mike Stanton and Roger Clemens were also on hand. Jeter was given a standing ovation when he stepped into the batters box.
