DEREK'S DOMINOS: THE WORLD'S BEAUTIES KEEP FALLING FOR JETER

DEREK'S DOMINOS
THE WORLD'S BEAUTIES KEEP FALLING FOR JETER

January 29, 2007 -- Derek Jeter's batting average was .343 last season - but when it comes to women, he's batting a thousand.

His latest home-run hottie is Gabrielle Union, at least according to Page Six. Her rep says they're "friends but did not hook up."

The sexy star of "Deliver Us from Eva" and the Yankee shortstop were seen flirting and dancing at the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas last week, but Union is just the latest in a string of hits for the Bronx baseballer.

Before being linked to Union, Jeter was rounding the bases in late '06 with angelic actress Jessica Biel of TV's "7th Heaven" and the high-flying movie "Stealth."

No 2's previous list of "10"s reads like a wish list for teenage boys everywhere: Actress Scarlett Johansson, veejay and Miss Teen USA 1998 Vanessa Minnillo, singer Joy Enriquez, and actresses Jessica Alba and Jordana Brewster.

He's even dated the millennium's Miss Universe - India's Lara Dutta, who held the crown in 2000.

What is it about Jeter that makes the women go wild? Perhaps the MVP smile, the fact that he's got "good hands," front row Knicks tickets and a $4 million bachelor pad at Trump World Tower.

Or maybe it's his approach.

Jason McIntyre who has chronicled the women of Jeter for ESPN.com says, "All the guys want to be friends with Jeter, and all the ladies want him."

Every woman in New York City has a story, said McIntyre.

"They all seem to go something like this, 'His (insert wingman here) came up and said that he'd like to meet me,' yada, yada, yada - he's such a down-to-earth, nice guy," he said.

"I guess when you play the marquee position on the most popular sports team in America, in the largest city in the United States, you've got to be versatile enough to alternate between dating Miss Universe, an actress, or a hostess at a restaurant," said McIntyre.

"He seems to have mastered that art."

Play on, Derek, play on.
