When Derek Jeter was eight years old, he announced that he was going to play
baseball for the New York Yankees. Jeter earned the attention of major league
scouts in high school and was drafted to the New York Yankees in 1992. Named
Rookie of the Year, he helped the Yankees win the World Series five times, and
became team captain in 2003. With his good looks, easygoing personality, and
sense of humor, Derek has always been a fan favorite. Retiring from baseball in
2014, Derek Jeter leaves behind a legacy.
