Derek Jeter jealous of the Yankees-Dodgers World Series matchup

Derek Jeter has accomplished a lot in his Hall of Fame career.

The legendary shortstop spent his entire twenty-year career with the New York Yankees, winning five World Series titles, earning fourteen All-Star nominations, a World Series MVP, five Gold Glove awards and five Silver Slugger awards, among many other awards. Jeter’s resume would make anyone green with envy, but there’s one thing “The Captain” would like to add to the list: a fall classic against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

“There’s nothing I would change about my career other than being able to play in a Yankees-Dodgers World Series,” Jeter said prior to Game 1 of the 2024 Fall Classic between the Yankees and Dodgers in Los Angeles.

The 2024 World Series game will mark the 12th time the two juggernauts have faced off for the Commissioner’s Trophy – but the first since 1981. That was well before Jeter’s time. He won five titles with the Yankees: 1996 versus the Atlanta Braves, 1998 versus the San Diego Padres, 1999 versus the Braves, 2000 versus the New York Mets and 2009 versus the Philadelphia Phillies. In 2000, he was named MVP of the World Series.
