The legendary shortstop spent his entire 20-year career with the New York Yankees and won five World Series titles, earned 14 All-Star nods, a World Series MVP, five Gold Glove awards and five Silver Slugger awards, among many other accolades. Jeter’s resume would make anyone green with envy, but there’s one thing ‘The Captain’ wishes he added to the list — a Fall Classic against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
‘There is nothing I would change about my career except being able to play in a Yankees-Dodgers World Series,’ Jeter said ahead of Game 1 of the 2024 Fall Classic between the Yankees and Dodgers in Los Angeles.
The 2024 World Series matchup marks the record 12th time the two juggernauts have faced off against each other for the Commissioner’s Trophy — but the first since 1981. That was way before Jeter’s time. He won five titles with the Yankees — 1996 vs. the Atlanta Braves, 1998 vs. the San Diego Padres, 1999 vs. the Braves, 2000 vs. the New York Mets and 2009 vs. the Philadelphia Phillies. He was named the World Series MVP in 2000.
