Michael, that was a terrific piece. Very eloquent. Explained Jeter the person really well but also the brilliance of his career. Props
Luke Grant I don’t want to hear another voice when it’s about the Yankees. Kay is the greatest
Maybe they’ll invite Mike to speak at his hall of fame induction!
@@teaghanfinks5083 he should stick to intros and soliloquies!! His in game announcing sucks!!!
Staffelkapitän I see where u r coming from, I’m
Talking strictly like radio wise. If I listen about the Yankees, I come here. don is a good co host , as a Mets fan it adds some rivalries, and Kay is the best reporting about the Yankees.
"Derek Jeter. Where fantasy becomes reality. Did you have any doubt"-Michael Kay
That should be inscribed on his HOF bust
Michael Kay. You NAILED IT.
Well said, Michael!
Yankee fans in the past will always have their generational favorites. For me it was Donnie and Jeter.
I consciously remember 6 years of Mattingly growing up. I was born in ‘81. So he’ll always be my first Yankee idol.
But Jeter was the majority afterwards.
I remember in ‘94 when I was 13.
My best friend Gary from I.S. 68 in Canarsie, Brooklyn came up to me and said “You heard about this guy the Yankees signed? His name is Jeter”.
Being a kid who knew very little about the world or the diversity of names in general, I laughed and said “What kinda name is Jeter”.
We both laughed.
Fast-forward 26 years!
And that young man is in the HOF.
Congrats Derek!
Thank you for the memories that will last me a lifetime!
I was listening that day back in 1992.
I'm glad he recognizes how lucky he is to have the job he does.
Congratulations Derek! Thank you for the memories you've given us,the magical moments etched in our hearts&history&record books forever!!
The Captain is headed to Cooperstown!!⚾️🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆👍
Bob Sheppard " Derek Jetuh " Gives me chills to think about it !
I wonder if Jeter plays that audio when he enters his bedroom every night.
@@REVOFEV792 he better! Lol
You and John sterling need to be elected in the hall of fame
Congratulations to Derek Jeter. No one is more deserving of this honor. Growing up, he and Bernie Williams were my favorite Yankees. What Michael said about him being the exact same no matter what the pressure situation was so true. I can remember thinking to myself on many occasions during postseason play that I thought he seemed overly cool in the box, but again, that's because for most people we just expect the situation to dictate a faster pumping heart and eyes wide and bat moving all around with more nervous body movements involved. Jeter would simply take one foot out the box, adjust his velcro batting gloves, raise his right hand to the ump for time and then step back in just he always did and make something happen. In his earlier days there was a sort of hop step practice swing a little further outside the box as he looked down to the third base coach before turning and stepping right back in. Countless times he came through for the Yankees on the field, but the coolest thing about him as Michael said was his personality which was full of class and respect for others. I imagine at one time he heard the term, "those who give respect, get respect" and he really took that to heart because the entire league had nothing but the utmost respect for him. Even the Boston Red Sox deep down respected him tremendously. They proved that with his awesome Fenway send off back in 2014. What a tribute to player who embodied the epitome of class, selflessness, teamwork and leadership. If they could have given him a HOF induction just for those qualities alone I don't think too many people would argue, but he was special athletically as well as everything else and there is no denying that. His numbers speak volumes by themselves. And in the past 80+ years nobody has earned more WS championship rings. That is a feat I'm sure he keeps at the very pinnacle of his successes. What a tribute to a great athlete and great human being. 20 yrs in the media eye of the storm that'll is the New York Yankees and he did not have one single ounce of bad press said about him nor did he create any on or off the field. Way to go, Derek. I can't wait for next trip to Cooperstown to honor another great Yankee.
Well said Mr. Kay!!
DJ had the perfect script to his career he did it his way it's special.
Jeter = Class.
Michael you are an awesome announcer and Jeter was such a fun class act player who played with his whole heart
Michael Kay is right!
When you watch on television or come out to the old and then the new Cathedral on River Avenue , you saw a skinny, polite kid , a young man, anAll Star , World Series Champion , a Captain, seasoned Veteran, an elder Statesman , just step on the hallowed ground of Shortstop or up to the plate , play the game that he loves ! What a champagne ending to a platinum career !
I wish I could listen to that 1992 interview
This guy is a CLASS ACT!!! A guy who we all can be proud of. Kids can look up to him!!
My favorite ball player. Played the game the right way. Class act ✅
He deserves 100 percent votes
How is CARLOS DELGADO not in the HOF??? 473 homers, 1,512 RBI, 1,241 runs, .280/.383/.546 with a .929 career OPS. He was a one-man wrecking crew who NEVER had a hint of steroid controversy or innuendo.
Add fred mcgriff to that as well
Jeter totally deserved to get in with that high of a percentage.
DJ deserved a unanimous vote actually
@@michaelsweeney920 your 100% right but you knew some asshole had to be that guy
Michael Sweeney no he was good but not unanimous plus it voters vote based on what players do after their career like schilling and him trading an mvp to his old team for literally nothing which is some shady business
@Shotgunner42 I guess I should of said Jeter deserved it because his actions on and off the field, I by no means think he is the best player ever. Sorry about the cornfusion.LOL
Like eli, he took his team and said, we got this, follow my lead
The Captain, who could Captain Captains.
1992 wow I was 2 years old when jeter was drafted 🤯
GREAT MIKE TY ALSO W RESPECT- MOST HITS AT HIS POSITION!!! GO DJ HOF- UNANY IN MY BOOK!!!
I'm a cubs fan but have a lotta love and respect for the bronx bombers and he in my 38 yrs of living is the best yankeee i ever seen
CHILLS.
Well done Michael. Well done. Thanks captain.
The fact that one writer keep him out is foolish he is a shortstop with 3000 plus hits and is the the all time hits leader at that position and 5 rings how the hell is not a unanimous HoF famer
But nobody complains that past HOF with way better careers than Jeter didnt get 100%
george slupski I do Griffey SHOuld have been unanimous to but this is a HOF where Pete Rose the all time hits leader is not it so what can I say
Jeter should have been unanimous. Same with Ken Griffey Jr.
Jeter the best shortstop of all time, and if Griffey stayed healthy he would have been all time home run leader.
Preach, agree 100%
He was good but the only reason people think he should be unanimous is because of how he acted which is stupid and the only way he would be unanimous he just wasn’t good enough to be unanimous
@@kurumauzamaki2731 Jeter or Griffey?
Michael Sweeney jeter just isn’t good enough to be unanimous and if Griffey wasn’t injury prone he should’ve been unanimous as he’d have better stats
@@kurumauzamaki2731 Derek's WAR is 11th all time dude.. Are you brain dead? Many many clutch hits, amazing in the post season.. Come on, you're hating hard bro
Damn, that was good.
Well said.
Well said .! Thank you 🙏🏽... “ The Yaaaaaankees win the Yankees win! “
I dont get why some people don't like Kay. He's a great announcer. He's had a lot of big and famous things happen during his games, and nails all of them. And while obviously biased for the Yankees, he's not afraid to criticize them.
Who is the one vote that didn't vote for Jeter? His vote should be taken away for future votes.
To be fair there are other players with better stats who weren’t even close to the high 90%. Jester was an amazing guy and great player, but wasn’t the god at the game like some others
Jeter given his stats is definitely first ballot, but if Griffey wasn’t unanimous Jeter shouldn’t be either.
he was my favorite player after Tony Gwynn retired and every since Jeter retired i've been looking for another player to fill the void
DJ lemahieu
Well done, Michael!
I miss Jeter so much. He was just amazing and fit great as a SS with the Yankees.
Jeter is a God we should all bow down to and worship
RELEASE THE NAME!
I agree 100%
Reveal yourself!
That’s illegal as if you release his name you have to release everyone’s name and if you do that players will be nice and do stuff for them in exchange for votes which isn’t good
@@kurumauzamaki2731 they have revealed names. They're releasing more next month.
Fantastic player and should have been a unanimous selection (coming from a Red Sox fan). But he did take one wrong fork in the road: he shouldn’t have forced A-Rod out of SS.
👏🏼 💯
Derek Jeter what can you say let's start with his parents did an awesome job in raising him perfect. Goes to New York does everything the right way perfect the best part for me is how he handled women just seemed like he never let them drive him crazy he waited till his career was up to find him a wife and settle down and have a family just perfect that's Derek Jeter.
Yep
Why didn't Jeter get into Hall unanimously?
GOAT
Congrats Jeter
Kay is so much better on this show than he is at calling games in the booth.
I WISH MR. SHEPPARD COULD HAVE PRESENTED DERIK JEETA...!
The guy that didn't vote for Jeter is my hero. LMFAO Yankee fans will whine about anything.
Derek Jeter was a great player and a sure HOFer. But if we are being honest, Jeter was never at any point better than 3rd best SS in the AL in a season.
He was in the Cat Bird Seat for that?
Ok he got in. Stop making a huge deal about that one guy who wanted to be funny. Just be happy he got in And stop complaining about everything
Stop complaining about Jeter not getting 100% vote. People with FAR better careers than him didnt get it
DJ2 should be a unanimous HOF we need more millennial voters these old heads are too strict in voting.
He missed out by one vote..
Definitely not a unanimous HOF'er you fumbling imbecile. Blinded by Yankee bias.
@@brandonmichael6578 yeah by some fucking old timer voter. we need millennial voters on the ballot.
@@bubby8825 you're just all over these comments
When you call a man with a 817 career ops when of the best players ever
He wasnt a power hitter u bitch
His offensive WAR is 11th all time. I don't think he makes the top 10 players who ever lived, but he's definitely in the top 25.
Ian would you please kindly tell me the 24 players better than derek jeter?
Elyroubin has litterly nothing to do with ops
Part of what made Jeter great was his ability to shine when it count
Jeter received 396 of a possible 397 votes, i'm i shocked no. giving 100 % to a player is saying he the best in mlb history. is jeter a clear number 1 ss ?no.
anyone shocked is clear a yankees fan. not a mlb fan. true fan of baseball say if babe ruth did not get 100% no one should
this was a smart move.
JEETS 🐐
Find out who that fool was who didn’t vote for him!
Whos that one guy who didnt vote for him..
an intellectual.
Mike wrote this and (it’s obvious) read it off prompter but I can’t blame him. Derek Jeter is the greatest baseball player of all time and the greatest leader in baseball history. Can’t sum that up spontaneously.
Oh jeez what a holier than art thou .... blah blah blah. You know Willie wasn’t unanimous, or Ted, or Mickey, or Hank or Jr. sorry Jeter was very good but deserving of being unanimous I think not.
I LOVE DJ But The person who didn't vote for DJ...... probably knows he used PED's during the later part of his career don't at me.
all I have to say is he was a great player but Bernie Williams and Jorge Posada were also great players and didn't get hurt as much as Jeter did .The Yankees Choose not to protect them even do they play the most demanding positions .is sad but Jeter without them can win Championship .but the other guy's that cheat on thhe game may have the chance to be selected .
Jeter barely got hurt....
Jeter played 20 seasons and barely had fewer than 145 games per season. What r u talking about?
Eduardo Berrios, bro yor are delusional! Jeter hardly eva missed games in his 20yr career.
How is he a hall of famer?
I’m ok with him missing 1 vote.
I just think Mariano is the best ever at his position. Jeter getting 296/297 votes is fine.
I'm not okay with it because it was out of spite. If he had missed out on 5 or 10 or 15 then I'd be ok with it because there would be a discussion about why he should or shouldn'tbe elected. There's no discussion here. This one guy didn't vote for him out of spite. His vote should be taken away forever.
M Angellotti - that is a fair answer sir
Who was the turd who voted against Derek Jeter?
It took awhile to get hall of fame
You're not eligible until you've been retired for 5 years, genius.
Shiii, get a room
He was great, but not one of the greatest players who ever lived. And I'm a Yankee fan.
howie9751 I’m sorry, but I have to respectfully disagree. he’s a first ballot hall of famer. Nearly unanimous. He’s in the 1% If that doesn’t make him one of the greatest players who ever lived, I don’t know what does. Not a Yankee fan btw
Overrated
CITRUS KNIGHT Rings are one of the worst ways to measure a player. Scott Brosius has 3 and Barry Bonds has none. Is Brosius better? Yes Jeter had a lot of hits. I didn’t say he wasn’t awesome..but he’s overrated. He struck out a lot, his arm was average, and his range was ok. He was surrounded by great players his whole career. He got plenty of pitches to hit because he hit 2nd in the order. No one ever pitched around Jeter. Only 5 guys have more hits than Him yet I don’t ever remember Him being intentionally walked. He was extremely consistent, durable, and probably the best instinctual player in history, but no one was afraid of Jeter when facing the Yanks. I’m sorry. Did he have a great career? Yes. Does he deserve to be in the HOF? Yes. Was he overrated? I’m sorry but yes.
CITRUS KNIGHT because no one will have that many opportunities
CITRUS KNIGHT I didn’t say that, but if he did exactly what he did on the Pirates or the Blue Jays or the Reds it wouldn’t have translated into one postseason success. He was part of the reason yes, but let’s not make him out to be Lebron James. ARod’s year in 2009 where he carried the team on his back to a World Series title is the type of player that deserves the type of accolades you’re referring to. He was a great player but he’s still overrated. You can argue it all day. It just is what it is.
overrated!!!
