He was a mediocre fielder and when it came down to it he was a good hitter but do you really consider him great, he’s ranked not even in the top 500 in slugging all time
Dee Blan Agreed. He’s the greatest Yankee of all time in my opinion. Wish I could rewind time and watch him play all over again. He left his mark on Baseball and it will never be the same. He was he face of Baseball for nearly 20 years!!!!
I remember this catch when i was in little leauge and I always practiced this cause I played short as well. Well long story short i made a similar play in my all star game and I felt so proud lol
As a Yankees fan I saw most if not all of these plays live and seeing them again gave me goosebumps. I miss him so much but am honored to have lived during his era. I know its over but I know Im privileged to have seen him play.
I don't care what anyone says.. Derek Jeter WILL go down as the best shortstop to ever play the game. The guys could run, one of THE best hitter of all time and he was extremely clutch. He was definitely the Babe Ruth of our generation. Like if you agree
why do people make these comments. Baseball will be around for a long time and SOMEONE i hope will be better. he was amazing. he is the best. but to say noone else will ever be better is kind of negative and disheartening to be honest. i hope the quality only continues to go up and we see some amazing players in future baseball
1:51-2:00 possibly the greatest baseball play I have ever witnessed, and will ever witness. Simply because he is a shortstop who for no other reason than pure foresight should have been where he was to make that play. He will always be beloved by and fan of Baseball and especially by Yankee fans of his era.
What's crazy is they never practice double cuts mid season, only in spring training but that is actually where a short stop is supposed to go on a sure double on the RF line since 2B doesn't need to be covered. I've never seen it happen like that though
Agreed. Long as I live, I will never forget that play. Not only because of how amazing/unbelievable it was, but because of the situation. He saved that game and the Yankees season. To be in that situation and make a play like that -- it was like something you see only in a movie. They kept showing the replay at that time, and I still couldn't believe it had happened.
Ehh, to me I’ve always thought he slowed the play down. The throw was on line and had enough mustard to get there in time. It’s all good because Jeter did make the play and Giambi was out. I just think he needlessly interjected himself into it
so much respect for this guy. I'm not a yankees fan but diving face first into the stands!?, all kinds of home runs, and just amazing plays. this guy is insane
Calvin James even more nuts that was the regular season game mid summer in a competitive year vs the Red Sox. The rivalry was so real back then I’m remember that game vividly as a kid even have it on vhs recorded
Coming from a die hard Red Sox fan, I will ALWAYS say that Derek Jeter is one of the greatest players in baseball history. Truly a titan in the world of baseball right up there with Babe Ruth. A stand up guy as well as an incredible player! Gotta love Mr. November!!
Wir waren damals (Ich bis heute) alle Jeter Fans. Ich habe meine erste Karte von ihm 2003 bekommen, bin auch 2003 zum Allstargame und Homerun derby nach Chicago geflogen, ich war damals 13 Jahre alt. Schade war gewesen, dass Jeter nicht da war😢 Ich habe in Deutschland für die Paderborn Untouchables gespielt und wir wurden 2 mal Deutscher Meister. Jeter seine Tricks im Spiel, die haben unser ganzes Spiel verändert. Derek... Du bist und bleibst für immer eine Legende... Wie war das nochmal? An Helden erinnert man sich immer, aber Legenden sterben nie ❤❤❤
Man what a pleasure watching him.he had the consistency throughout season by season excellent playoff performance and a great leader and face of baseball
Derek is the only Yankee to ever hit over 3000 Hits ,he is automatic HoF on first ballot , should be the first in history to get every vote ,but some sports people hold grudges ,just because he's a Yankee...which shouldn't come into play but people can be very vindictive , which this award is given to the Man not the team. He ,I believe , is the most respected Ballplayer in the game Today and maybe ever.I grew up watching legends like Mickey ,Yogi ,Roger and many more . Not just the Yankees either , I went to Ebbets Field to see the Dodgers til they left. My Dad loved The Giants before they left , he thought Willie Mays was second to nobody , especially Brooklyn's Jackie Robinson, except Robinson had the toughest story being first to break down the Color Barrier in Baseball.! Yes , Jeter is still better then most and a Living Legend , and hope like hell ,he replaces Girardi after this contract expires or sooner, If that's what he decides to do after he retire a an active ballplayer !
Derek Jeter is Mr. November, Rookie of the Year, All-Star MVP and World Series MVP the same year. The Captain has won five World Series Championships, and is known as Captain Intangible. He's about respect, about winning, and a man who looks right into your eyes. He's humble yet competitive. Consistency is his motto. Derek Jeter plays the game the right way: with abandon. He's collected 3465 hits over a 20 season campaign. Has been an All-Star 14 times and has had an allegiance to one team ~ The New York Yankees. It'll take a generation to replace him. Enjoy the highlights. :-) ~Uncle Bob
great video, plays that are often forgotten, Jeter shows over and over why he is such an amazing player, Man, I will miss him after this season. SO fortunate to watch him play so many years!
Thanks for the highlight reel, well done. I'm from Boston and a lifelong Red Sox fan, but more importantly a baseball fan. Derek Jeter has easily been the best all-around player during the past 20 years (and maybe more!). Not only that, he's been a great role model and ambassador of the sport. The flip to home plate from the 1st baseline is the best "baseball" play I've ever seen. A perfect example of how his mental approach to the game was one of his best attributes. Oh how I wish he had been playing SS at Fenway this whole time. I hope NY fans realize how luck they've been. He will be missed by all true fans of the game.
Dude...what are you talking about...I see you on every Red Sox video cheering them on...YOu usually are hating on the Yanks! hahah Im just fucking with ya
He didn’t have the most pop in his bat or the strongest arm in the league, but he was the most clutch player and that my friends is what people will remember you for.
Red Sox fan who as much as it pains me to say it can't help but respect this guy.... "Now batting for the Yankees, number 2 Derek Jeter, number 2" thanks for the memories, except among some others the 1999. 2003 and games 1,2 and 3 of the 2004 ALCS
always looked up to jeter.. i was a ss my whole baseball career as well my favorite was the in the hole throw.. and the missed cut off man... it was crazy that he came all the way across the field and made it in time to catch and still get the runner out.. amazing
Hands down my favorite pro athlete of all time. The man is a perfect example of what you want in a franchise player played every game like it was the world series never bought into personal stats and hated losing add in how great of a person he is off the field you get a hall of fame player and man.
been a red sox fan all my life. Got nothin but respect for this man. The epitome of professionalism, skill, and just everything a baseball player should strive to be
Brad Burney for sure our time but there's so many great hall of famers to give him best ever. but for sure best shortstop to ever play the game hands down
Brad Burney I totally agree he is the best all around player of our generation the best pitcher of our generation is Randy Johnson. David Ortiz is up there too
the play at 1:48 may be the greatest play in baseball history. the absolutely god like knowledge Jeter had to know that ball was going to be long and the sheer excellence of the backhanded throw. beautiful
Derek Jeter was a fucking beast. The only yankees game I went to was when the Yankees played the Tampa Bay Rays and Jeter got his 3,000 hit. It was amazing!
i never got into baseball or watched Jeter and decided to look at some highlights. Didn't let me down. Although that one play the other guy seemed to have had it in his sights. I guess if Jeter can get near the ball then don't get in his way. He also is pretty humble and a good role model for kids. Unless he is just good at hiding his flaws. Congrats to him for being a co owner of the Marlins. The perfect guy to motivate and coach a team.
I came here to watch captain jeter.the all time hit leader of the New York Yankees.. there was cobb. There was rose..and there was Jeter.. and the hits just kept coming..
Derek jeter worked hard to be the best shortstop in the world and forever. He also dreamed to be a shortstop for the New York Yankees. Dreams can make a difference!!!
Good job! One other thing I would love to see is his brilliant baserunning. Not sure of the game, but I remember one time he was caught in a rundown between third and home, a sure out. The captain signaled the first base runner to go to second, they threw to second, safe, and Jeter scored!
Jeter helped show young fans you don’t have to be a power hitter to be a dominant force
exactly, home runs will come, all you have to do is put the ball in play and things will happen
Bernie Consalvo Thats exactly what I am, I’m a high school baseball player and I rarely hit homer’s but I get more doubles and singles
MANCHESTER UNITED Thats cool but I don’t remember asking which sport is better 😂
Jeter was such a huge influence and inspiration to me when I played. He really did revolutionize the way young kids played.
He was a mediocre fielder and when it came down to it he was a good hitter but do you really consider him great, he’s ranked not even in the top 500 in slugging all time
I could watch 1:17 - 1:21 all day. Perhaps the best throw I've ever seen a shortstop make.
Dee Blan Agreed. He’s the greatest Yankee of all time in my opinion. Wish I could rewind time and watch him play all over again. He left his mark on Baseball and it will never be the same. He was he face of Baseball for nearly 20 years!!!!
I remember this catch when i was in little leauge and I always practiced this cause I played short as well. Well long story short i made a similar play in my all star game and I felt so proud lol
Love how many try to replicate it and can’t meter was one of a kind
It should be the next MLB logo
Dee Blan with the help of steroids 😊
As a Yankees fan I saw most if not all of these plays live and seeing them again gave me goosebumps. I miss him so much but am honored to have lived during his era. I know its over but I know Im privileged to have seen him play.
I live in Georgia, so I never saw him "live", but I was a teen in the 90s and watched him in the World Series on TV. Amazing player!
One of the best players of my life. Loved to watch him play. One of the greatest, deserving his induction into the HOF.
I don't care what anyone says.. Derek Jeter WILL go down as the best shortstop to ever play the game. The guys could run, one of THE best hitter of all time and he was extremely clutch. He was definitely the Babe Ruth of our generation. Like if you agree

CSGaming 13 I can't agree you any more
best
Lol babe ruth had like 52 homeruns career high and jeter 24 so please dont say he was a babe ruth
CSGaming 13 man shut the fuck up

stonernights which shows you how good the play by Jeter was. Because giambi thought he was cruising to a run
Agreed. Long as I live, I will never forget that play. Not only because of how amazing/unbelievable it was, but because of the situation. He saved that game and the Yankees season. To be in that situation and make a play like that -- it was like something you see only in a movie. They kept showing the replay at that time, and I still couldn't believe it had happened.

No one can replace him
+jacob moran Nope.
Maybe not on the Yankees
Didi Gregorius is doing just fine replacing Jeter.
Thomas Mock love Didi but hes no Jeter
idk arenado is neck and neck
Derek Jeter is the best in modern baseball. he's missed by all. thanks for the memories. I'm a life time Yankees fan. respect #2
WE WILL MISS U DEREK

Nice hearing the late Great 'Scooter' Phil Rizzuto making the call on his 1st MLB HR.
One of my favorite Yankees, I have a picture of his diving catch, and remember all the great plays he's made. He'll be missed
:0 I'm from Boston but like Ted Williams the NYY have 2 pick 1 seat in that area and make it the Dereck Jeter seat ?
when he played he was the FACE of MLB
Not really. Griffey was a bigger star pre2000, and after 2000 you have Rodriguez, and Pujols
@@michaelcooke6267 overall DJ is way better than them
@@fabri1314 lol are you crazy or something? Those are some of the greatest hitters ever, mr. Overrated does not come close.
@@glenisclaribelcastilloguer6321 i said overall, not just at hitting
@@glenisclaribelcastilloguer6321 you insane arod was a cheater man probably won’t even be a hall of famer
Man what a pleasure watching him.he had the consistency throughout season by season excellent playoff performance and a great leader and face of baseball
I think Jeter will always be remembered for the play from 1:49 to 2:20
Jeter … one of the greatest Yankees on a team of greats and legends.
:0 I'm from Boston but like Ted Williams the NYY have 2 pick 1 seat in that area and make it the Dereck Jeter seat ?
Hands down, the best leader I have ever witnessed in MLB

Derek Jeter man, the best shortstop to ever play in the MLB. What a legend.
Bruh he is mad good
Best Player of My Time
OVERRA2ED
man that ball flip to Jorge at like 1:57 is just legendary.
Happy thanksgiving we are thankful for jeter
This Video Gives Me The Chills🥶
Great Job! Coming from a Yankee fan too, you hit most of the real high notes.
Dude...what are you talking about...I see you on every Red Sox video cheering them on...YOu usually are hating on the Yanks! hahah Im just fucking with ya
what is the music in video
Now batting for the Yankees: Number 2. Derek Jeter. Number 2.
The way Jeter ran into Cano to catch that ball... Jeter was the Kobe Bryant of the MLB no doubt about it
So many great plays. So much great hustle. Fabulous leadership.....and no scandals!!!! One of my favorite of all time. In any sport
The man who made me fall in love with baseball ♥️
He is my favour living player...Great on the field and off it as well...Wish him the best of health to enjoy his retirement ...
I'm german and I don't understand baseball but this is epic
He didn’t have the most pop in his bat or the strongest arm in the league, but he was the most clutch player and that my friends is what people will remember you for.
Red Sox fan who as much as it pains me to say it can't help but respect this guy.... "Now batting for the Yankees, number 2 Derek Jeter, number 2" thanks for the memories, except among some others the 1999. 2003 and games 1,2 and 3 of the 2004 ALCS

That was an awesome video he is the best shortstop in the world I wish I could play base ball like him!
Miss watching Derek Jeter play sooooo much. 😢😢

2:23 I remember watching that live on tv and jumping out of my recliner.
I was at that 3000th hit, amazing. the stadium went nuts
I miss cano and jeter turning double plays tht shit was so smooth
3:10 As a Yankees fan and a Jeter supporter, I won't never stop saying that wasn't a homerun.
Man this gave me chills amazing!!!
As a little leaguer early 2000s Jeter was my favorite player, and Ichiro.
Thanks for everything DJ, you'll be missed
been a red sox fan all my life. Got nothin but respect for this man. The epitome of professionalism, skill, and just everything a baseball player should strive to be
THE BEST!!! THANK YOU!!!
Derek Jeter has to be one of the best Yankee players
derek jeter my favorite player and the best player forever yes Derek good for you
ジーターかっこいいー！
Im a die hard football (soccer) fan, but i still put DJ in a top 5 of the greatest sport
athletes of all time
THE GREATEST SHORTSTOP OF ALL TIME.
1:58 WOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! Man, that is amazing! (Music helps make it even more epic lol)
easily the best ball player of our time and maybe even of all time. At least in my eyes.
Brad Burney for sure our time but there's so many great hall of famers to give him best ever. but for sure best shortstop to ever play the game hands down
I guess I can agree with that
Brad Burney I totally agree he is the best all around player of our generation the best pitcher of our generation is Randy Johnson. David Ortiz is up there too
A-Rod is better
Pujols is better
C. jones is better
Miggy is better
Beltre is better
Trout is basically already better
O V E R R A T E D
Moffett's Solution i disagree with that
the play at 1:48 may be the greatest play in baseball history. the absolutely god like knowledge Jeter had to know that ball was going to be long and the sheer excellence of the backhanded throw. beautiful
I'm from Boston and do you like the band "NO DOUGHT" DEF # 1 all time I've ever seen ... Just like Ray Allen from the corner, etc etc clutch
What an awesome tribute to Derek Jeter re2epct

Probably the greatest position player of all time
No.
Derek Jeter is the best shortstop that ever lived and anyone who thinks differently doesn't know he sport
Basketball players yell “Kobe” and baseball players yell “Jeter” 1:17
Football players yell Odell Beckham
Sometimes
@Tripleblade 82 yea... They do
@Tripleblade 82 no but I'm just saying who else do u yell out when u want to one hand catch a ball?
@@grass1366 you got moss'd ring a bell?
KJ Savage lmao 😆
We are so lucky to have seen a legend in the making
He's my fav all time player!! What a good guy!! Classy n all pro!
The play on Giambi brings me to tears
I came here to watch captain jeter.the all time hit leader of the New York Yankees.. there was cobb. There was rose..and there was Jeter.. and the hits just kept coming..

I will always remember that dive Jeter did in the crowd and caught the ball during that World Series game.
You gotta think. This man was a great baseball player, a great teammate and never did drugs during the “juice” era. This dudes the goat.
I was really sad to see derek Jeters last game, but babe ruth is my favorite.Today though would half to derek jeter
Matthew Whitson babe 😹😹😹
Comethezine gunna have me looking thru a bunch a baseball cards I have looking for a jeter card.
M's fan here, bt gotta give it up too Jeter he was one of the best shortstops. He was a great player!
Jeter retiring makes me feel so fucking old. I can remember when he was a rookie like it was yesterday.
I'll Do Andy Pettitte Career Highlights
as much as I hate the yankees, I love Derek Jeter. Amazing guy who plays the game the right way
Good!!!
The best shortstop to ever do it
Just think in today’s game the bomb versus Baltimore would’ve been reviewed and changed.
Damn jeter is so good he is my favorite mlb player of all time
One of the greatest players of all-time. It'll be sad seeing him retire
love his bat "flip". Just throws his bat down in the same motion as his swing. "get that shit outta my way, I gotta go run."
Jeter’s signature throw in the hole is something that people are going to think of forever when they hear his name.💪🏻
1:49 one of the greatest baseball plays I have ever seen
Randy Johnson career highlights
Posado ain’t to shabby. A lot of these plays at home are a credit to his play as well
Best shortstop ever
I swear Jeter has gone everywhere in the field fielding. Out field, first, second, third, and home
Un fuera de serie sin duda saludos
4:56 oh Johnny boy
Derek Jeter is awesome!!! And I'm a Tigers fan.
Great footage.
God-awful music.
It just about drowned out Phil Rizzuto.
the music was epic
JazzAnswer99 music actually pretty good
🐐 officially in hall of fame
