I don't see how this is any different than a catcher taking a ball and then moving it back in the strikezone to "frame" it.  In both instances the players are trying to deceive and persuade the ump towards a certain call completely within the rules.  Sure Jeter might have been a d-bag about it, but the onus is on the ump to get the call right and 95%+ of the time the ump would know he was lying.  I'm in agreement with DPM on this one.
