Derek Jeter's Memorable Return and Debut at Yankees' Old-Timers' Day
Derek Jeter attended his first Old-Timers' Day at Yankee Stadium as the team honored the 1998 championship team. Jeter, along with fellow members of the Core Four, Jorge Posada, Andy Pettitte, and Mariano Rivera, joined the reunion. Former manager Joe Torre acknowledged fan disappointment in the current Yankees and expressed support for manager Aaron Boone. Jeter's message to the current team was simple: "Win. It's that simple." The event also included the introduction of other notable Yankees players and the widows of Hall of Famers Whitey Ford, Billy Martin, and Thurman Munson.
