Joe Torre and Jeter ending was heartfelt. He was his second dad. Those 2 been thru so much together. It was fitting he was the last person to hug him and give him heart felt words before Jeter left for the locker room
My 1st. Yankees Stadium Game, I saw Micky Mantle get a base hit off of Louie Tiant in 1968. I was 9 years old. Watching and cheering The Great Bobby Murcer, Thurman Munson, Don Mattingly, Bernie Williams and The Core Four, has been a Yankees fan dream. Then to be able to watch the greatest of all of all time, from his first major league hit in 1996 to his last hit in Sept. 2014 There's been no other greater thrill.than to watch Derek Jeter's entire career. Now today i'm 61 years old, and i'm waiting to watch Derek's Cooper's town induction speech into The Hall of Fame. What a lucky guy i've been to be able to watch The greatest team w/ The greatest Ballplayer. Thank you God for letting me witness a piece of New York Yankee History
Thank you for sharing Edward. I was only 14 years old watching this live and I couldn’t believe my eyes. Growing up and idolizing the greatest to ever wear #2, it was really surreal to watch. Yankees fan then, Yankees fan forever. Cheers!
4:17 Joe Torre hugging Jeter and saying "I'd know that guy anywhere" in his signature, working-class Brooklyn cadence, with Sinatra's voice crooning in the background, gets me every time. To quote Brad Pitt in Moneyball, "how can you not be romantic about baseball?"
The part where you realize at age 18 that one day no matter how famous you are .... you will walk off that field after you’re last game, wether it’s highschool, or college, or MLB. It will end one day, make the most of it because you will miss the game that has done so many good things , it clears you’re mind , teaches you how to play as a team, but most of all, it teaches you re2pect.
I come here probably once every 3 months, remember watching this live and as a BASEBALL fan there's no way it should have ended differently, even red sox fans respected this lol, no moment in sports history will ever be as poetic as this.
I’ll never forget where I was, and what I was doing while watching this live on TV. My favorite player, and this moment still hits so hard. Thanks for the memories, Captain. Can’t wait to watch the induction today!
There will never be another player like Jeter. I’m in my late 20s and played baseball for 10+ years growing up he was one of the last great players from my childhood to walk away from the game. Baseball will never feel the same
Just started watching baseball coming from a huge basketball guy this had me tear up the magnitude of this guys career and determination just has me in awe
My favorite game ever, and frankly, the happiest moment in the history of sports. If I could be anything, I'd be standing in the heart of Yankee Stadium, watching the New York faithful celebrate as Sinatra played over the speakers.
RE2PECT. Not many make such an impact on a storied baseball team. Totally deserving of the Pinstripes. Well done Derek. Well done. You are one of the greats.
Was there in the nose bleeds behind home plate, never cried and laughed more than that night. Easily the best sports moment I’ve ever been apart of. God bless Derek Jeter and the Yankees
Im 18 now Dereks last season Was My First season watching baseball when I was 8 I Wish I got To Remember More Than His age 40 season I went to a game that year on july 24th and that Was one of The Few games He Had off at home that year I was also Going to go To is HOF Induction But Covid Ruined That. At least Ill have Some stories To tell my grandkids but i Wish 8 year old me Appreciated This moment More. 10 years later thanks Derek Jeter For Helping me fall in love with baseball.
Just think for a minute of how Joe Torre was able to watch Derek Jeter from his fourth year in baseball and for eleven years total. Anybody that has played sports can relate. You watch a guy start out as a young man just learning their way and watch them grow up to be a man and see what they do on a nightly basis as they become great and a true statement to the sport they have pursued, the memories they leave behind with you are TRULY PRICELESS!
I watch this highlight at least once a year despite the fact that I took a redeye from LA to be at this game. I just knew it was something I wouldn't want to miss. DJ joined Twitter & Instagram today. Does anyone else follow him yet?
I've been a Ysnkee fan all of my 67 years on this earth and I can't think of any other Yankee who has been more loved and admiired than Derek. Probably Mickey when he played is a close 2nd because he was my favorite in my early years, then Thurman and Donny Baseball but Derek is tops on my list!!!!!!
Look @Jeter's BOYS frm the 90s over there in the cut waiting for him. Baseball can be so long and drawn out but as a youngin' n the 90s, I'd stay inside for a few hrs for the Yankees. Fyi: Going to the stadium during that era was THE TRUTH!!!
Imagine Jeter as a boy... playing stickball or baseball with the average, ordinary kids. You know Derek was the kid always picked first on teams. Imagine in school... in gym class.... How many times were kids screaming... "We want Derek on our team!" ...Or how many arguments..."Not fair, you got Derek on your team!" They probably renamed the high-school he attended to Jeter High.
Still the most electric I've ever seen the Stadium. And I've been to most of the playoff games the Yanks have played there since that day. Nothing compares. This game meant literally nothing. But it meant the world to us.
This was a movie. This has all the mysticism, enchantment, and closure of a movie, i swear i was just waiting for the credits to roll with a still of Derek and Frankie Blue Eyes singing his praise to the City That Never Sleeps. How can you not be romantic for baseball?
What amazes me is opposing ballparks would boo this guy. If you don’t like the Yankees that’s fine but Jeter is the epitome of professionalism and class.
+Rocco Salvemini I dont know, that was the first time in history....and the last time you will ever hear Fenway chanting a Yankee players name with a standing ovation and even the team came out of the dugout. I thought that was pretty unique.
I think it all planned out perfectly for a perfect Yankees true story. NY/Bos are one of the toughest rivalries in sports. To close that door in peace with giving and receiving respect to Boston was class on both ends. Boston and NY will always have a love/hate relationship. It's like Batman/Joker. Without each other everything would be boring
Nah. That Fenway ending was perfect. His last two games perfectly summarize his whole career. As much as he was great in big moments, it was all of the smaller, less glorious stuff that truly made him elite.
Crazy how this whole video didnt make shed a single tear, but as soon as he walked in the dugout in the end to go back to the lockeroom, I started ballin tearz😭😭😭😭😭
I'm a white sox fan but this ending was epic for Jeter. Im glad to see a great player finish his final game at Yankee Stadium with a walk-off. Welcome to Cooperstown!
For those that don’t know. Pettite, Williams, Posada, and Rivera, all started with Jeter in 1996. They were called “The Core Four”. They never left the Yankees. Well, Pettite left for five minutes but we can forget that happened.
I was there that night. They were selling shoe box time capsules with Jeter items that night. It came with a hat, t-shirt, two pins, and a baseball. I added my paper ticket and a photo I took of him tipping his cap to the crowd. I was there last night for the HOF plaque unveiling. I added my ticket, a picture of me next to his plaque, the replica plaque they were giving away, and two more t-shirts to the box.
"Derek Jeter, where fantasy becomes reality! Did you have any doubt?"
That should be inscribed on his HOF bust.
Dude did anyone ask? MANCHESTER UNITED
This is baseball
Soccer is not our topic
You are so off topic :/
@MANCHESTER UNITED F.C whats soccer? Isnt that just a girls sport?
“As long as there will be the Yankees, Derek Jeter will never be forgotten.” Truer words have never been spoken.
The core four standing there like they’re welcoming him to the field of Dreams gives me chills to this day
Oh man. I ugly cried at that. Beautiful moment.
and then theres Tino Martinez just chillin liek whats up bruh
Jeter needs to give David Robertson a gold watch for blowing the save.
+Richie Soga lol yes
Please it's jeter. They wanted him to win it.
In all fairness that was a fastball down the middle. I’ve thought for years it was intentional.
@@foxboi327 definitely threw him a meatball to send him off into the sunset
@@anthonyskoros4174 that's pretty dumb though
My grandpa told me stories of Joe DiMaggio, my dad told me stories of Mickey Mantle, I cant wait to tell my kids stories of Derek Jeter
Legit same for me
My grandma got to meet Joe DiMaggio
And your kids will tell your grand kids about Aaron Judge
That's awesome 👌
@@courtgizzle and so goes the Yankee way

Forever my favorite player
Burning Flowers Mine is Lou Gehrig.
when rivera, posada, and pettite are standing there, it gives me end of Return of the Jedi vibes

I was too at the bar, I was screaming and clapping and almost in tears.

@@Zack_410 I thought that your comment was me and I just forgot I left the comment 😂
I’m a Red Sox fan and this gives me the chills. Legend
He just couldn't leave Yankee Stadium without one more for the history books and the fans! Re2pect Thank you Jeter!
I come here probably once every 3 months, remember watching this live and as a BASEBALL fan there's no way it should have ended differently, even red sox fans respected this lol, no moment in sports history will ever be as poetic as this.
still watch this like 2 or 3 times a year.. chills
Baseball is the most romantic sport.
MiCMaCToE CK In the words of Billy Beane: "how can you not be romantic about baseball?"
How Can You Not Be Romantic About Baseball? This, the old stadium final game and Mo's final game gets to me everytime.
It’s 2020 and I’m still crying over this. Man I miss DJ so much 😭🐐
I’ll never forget where I was, and what I was doing while watching this live on TV. My favorite player, and this moment still hits so hard. Thanks for the memories, Captain. Can’t wait to watch the induction today!
I still get choked up every time I watch this he's the reason I played baseball class act will forever be favorite athlete
And that’s baseball folks. This never will get old.
Jeter and Kobe, two final games that are etched in my memory
hearing the NYY faithful is so uplifting i love our fans.
I still get a kick out of CC running onto the field before Richardson scored.
Knees were good that day
He just knew.
An all time great, on and off the field. He played the game the right way and was a class act.
There will never be another player like Jeter. I’m in my late 20s and played baseball for 10+ years growing up he was one of the last great players from my childhood to walk away from the game. Baseball will never feel the same
What a moment man. Not a Yankees fan what so ever but if you’re a true baseball fan, there is no way this moment doesn’t give u goosebumps
Coolest part of this video is Joe Torre at the end waiting to go into the clubhouse with Derek for one final time. Chills.
This will be never forget, Thanks Derek.
FORGOTTEN.......
@@247hdjazz my bad, 6 years ago 🤣 thank you 🔥
everything'a kooool Anthony! no problemo!
Such a 21st Century class act. His legacy shall live on forever in Yankee folklore.
Just started watching baseball coming from a huge basketball guy this had me tear up the magnitude of this guys career and determination just has me in awe
6 1/2 years later and it’s still unbelievable
Jordan and Jeter go hand in hand
My favorite game ever, and frankly, the happiest moment in the history of sports. If I could be anything, I'd be standing in the heart of Yankee Stadium, watching the New York faithful celebrate as Sinatra played over the speakers.
Who else remembers watching live and shedding a tear?
I don't think I'll ever be able to watch this and not tear up.
if ur a yankees fan and this doesnt make u cry there is something wrong with u
I did cry
I'm an O's fan and I cried
jordan kendall LMAOOO
If u aren’t a baseball fan or american
Oh I’m crying alright but only on the day it happened
RE2PECT. Not many make such an impact on a storied baseball team. Totally deserving of the Pinstripes. Well done Derek. Well done. You are one of the greats.
Was there in the nose bleeds behind home plate, never cried and laughed more than that night. Easily the best sports moment I’ve ever been apart of. God bless Derek Jeter and the Yankees

Moments like this is not only history, but magic happening right before your eyes!

You watch a guy start out as a young man just learning their way and watch them grow up to be a man and see what they do on a nightly basis as they become great and a true statement to the sport they have pursued, the memories they leave behind with you are TRULY PRICELESS!
Anybody else still get goosebumps from this in 2018?
Yeah, in 2022
I watch this highlight at least once a year despite the fact that I took a redeye from LA to be at this game. I just knew it was something I wouldn't want to miss. DJ joined Twitter & Instagram today. Does anyone else follow him yet?
I've been a Ysnkee fan all of my 67 years on this earth and I can't think of any other Yankee who has been more loved and admiired than Derek. Probably Mickey when he played is a close 2nd because he was my favorite in my early years, then Thurman and Donny Baseball but Derek is tops on my list!!!!!!
Derek Jeter is one of the only celebrities I ever met. And he was super nice to everyone
Look @Jeter's BOYS frm the 90s over there in the cut waiting for him. Baseball can be so long and drawn out but as a youngin' n the 90s, I'd stay inside for a few hrs for the Yankees. Fyi: Going to the stadium during that era was THE TRUTH!!!

loudest i have ever heard Yankee Stadium
i agree. was at aaron boone blast but it was a long night and the inning just turned over and at least i was surprised
@@jonzimmel8216yep that walkoff homerun was nasty and loud...never heard a crowd so loud and his bro was up there watching
I still get goosebumps watching this RE2PECT to the captain we miss u derek
5 years later and this still makes me cry
Imagine Jeter as a boy... playing stickball or baseball with the average, ordinary kids. You know Derek was the kid always picked first on teams. Imagine in school... in gym class....

This game meant literally nothing. But it meant the world to us.
watching this again after the Ichiro retirement. Baseball really evokes emotion like no other sport, man.
5 years ago, wow. Time flies.
This was a movie. This has all the mysticism, enchantment, and closure of a movie, i swear i was just waiting for the credits to roll with a still of Derek and Frankie Blue Eyes singing his praise to the City That Never Sleeps.
How can you not be romantic for baseball?
Brings a tear to my eye! Jeter will always be my favorite!
What amazes me is opposing ballparks would boo this guy. If you don’t like the Yankees that’s fine but Jeter is the epitome of professionalism and class.
A true Yankee legend. Even frank playing behind him.
I WAS AT THIS GAME!!! THE ENERGY IN THE ARENA WAS ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE!!! YOU COULD’NT WRITE A BETTER ENDING!!! #THECAPTAIN 🐐
I am a Red Sox fan but I watched this and it was awesome
Jeter should of ended his career that night, it just didn't feel right with him ending it at Fenway
+Rocco Salvemini I dont know, that was the first time in history....and the last time you will ever hear Fenway chanting a Yankee players name with a standing ovation and even the team came out of the dugout. I thought that was pretty unique.
I think it all planned out perfectly for a perfect Yankees true story. NY/Bos are one of the toughest rivalries in sports. To close that door in peace with giving and receiving respect to Boston was class on both ends. Boston and NY will always have a love/hate relationship. It's like Batman/Joker. Without each other everything would be boring
He did it out of respect for the rivalry. His career ended this night but he wanted to give fans one more chance to see him play
what are you talking about? Fenway was chanting a YANKEE! Epic!
Nah. That Fenway ending was perfect. His last two games perfectly summarize his whole career. As much as he was great in big moments, it was all of the smaller, less glorious stuff that truly made him elite.
This moment was incredible. I always felt like this was Baseball's way of saying goodbye to Jeter
I think Meek gave him that hit. It was a 86mph ball to the center. But I don't blame him, I would've done the same. Jeter deserved it ! 👏
Class. Legend. For him to wish the O's luck is pure class
Crazy how this whole video didnt make shed a single tear, but as soon as he walked in the dugout in the end to go back to the lockeroom, I started ballin tearz😭😭😭😭😭
I routed against you and the Yankees. I will always respect you and how you played the game. Tipping the hat to you, Sir.
This puts a smile on my face every time
I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS LIVE WITH MY MOM!!! im Canadian, love the jays but also love the sox. This was absolutely INCREDIBLE
I'm a M's fan and this video makes me smile every single time... amazing.
And like that……He was gone. Ladies and Gentleman….THE INCREDIBLE Derek Geter, has left the building.
The Kobe Bryant of baseball
I'm a white sox fan but this ending was epic for Jeter. Im glad to see a great player finish his final game at Yankee Stadium with a walk-off. Welcome to Cooperstown!
Derek Jeter is one of those players, no matter what team you root for, you respect the individual player. 👏
I remember being so mad when I watched this game as an Orioles fan at 12 years old. Now all this time later I can’t help but smile
Always be the captain legend miss him so much why I played baseball
Captain Clutch! Still surreal, One of the greatest moments in the history of this sport. #2 Derek Jeter #2
This game atmosphere was insane it was like a game 7 of a world series felt like 96 all over what a night
Miss The Captain our there. Seeing the Yankees woes this year really makes you reminisce about the good ol days. Still LETS GO YANKS
Goosebumps every time
The Captain! My favorite Yankee of all time.
Even as an O’s fan I loved seeing Jeter end his home career this way. Respect.
7 years ago today... ❤️
Omg Im Crying again like a baby rewatching this !
me too
For those that don’t know. Pettite, Williams, Posada, and Rivera, all started with Jeter in 1996. They were called “The Core Four”. They never left the Yankees. Well, Pettite left for five minutes but we can forget that happened.
Gives me chills
