He has been the team's star shortstop since 1996 and been a major reason the Yankees have won three World Series Championships. His outstanding plays in the field combined with his powerful batting make him a force to be reckoned with, but it's his positive attitude and hard work that have earned him the respect and admiration of his teammates and his fans. In a sport filled with superstars, Derek Jeter has proven he has what it takes to rise to the top. |
