Derek Jeter Jersey

“I would be playing for the Yankees in Major League Baseball as a shortstop,” when Derek Jeter was in Junior High School, he along with other students were asked to predict what would be their lives after 10 long years. In his Junior High Yearbook, that was his prediction … AND he was RIGHT!

You may think that this was a little off-track since he was playing AAUU basketball against Chris Webber and Jalen Rose. However, in high school, Derek’s throws from shortstop has been clocked in the high 80’s. Aside from that, he only struck out once during his senior year in high school.

Later on in his career, Derek Jeter created a post-season record for hits by a rookie back in 1996 with 22 hits. Back in the 1997 playoffs, Derek Jeter along with Tim Raines and Paul O Neill created a sensation with back-to-back homers. By the way, this is the first time ever that the Yankees have done this during the post-season.

As a result of his outstanding performance in the field, Derek Jeter was made captain of the Yankees in 2003…far surpassing his expectations of playing for shortstop with the Yankees when he was in high school. Truly a remarkable Major League Baseball player that will be admired by generations for the years to come!
