Derek Jeter attended Kalamazoo High School located in Kalamazoo, Michigan, which is where his family moved to when Derek was just 4 years old.
Before that, they lived in Pequannock, New Jersey. Derek Jeter has several walk-up songs that he was known for during his time in the MLB.

Since it was listed, the property has captured the imaginations of real-estate buffs and sports fans alike, which meant Gay needed to weed out tourists from serious buyers. He and his team used backgrounding software to research people who inquired to see if they had enough wealth to make the purchase, he said. His colleague, Katie Glaser, was also a listing agent on the sale.
Not only did Jeter inherit a mess of a team from former owner Jeffrey Loria, but he got a harsh lesson in PR just a few years into the job. The good news is shortly afterward, the natural leader in Derek Jeter was reborn and he did a better job addressing the situation. But still, the former Yankee captain is slowly but surely getting better. Such is the life of a team owner, a far cry from that of a beloved player. Instead, Derek Jeter is the one making hard decisions that affect not only himself, but an entire organization.
After the inning ended, he squeezed himself into the tiny space between Torre and Zimmer on the bench. He was going to take his medicine. He was so refreshing. October completed The Charmed Season, though it began poorly. In a loss to Texas in Game 1 of the American League Division Series, Jeter, batting ninth, left six runners on base with a strikeout, pop fly and ground ball.
Tomorrow is the most important game of your life. There was a trust he earned at a very early age that is so rare. Can I play in the playoffs? The next night Jeter became the youngest Yankee to get three hits in a postseason game at Yankee Stadium as New York began its run to the world championship with a 5—4 win in 12 innings. He started the winning rally with a single and scored the winning run. The Yankees won 11 games that October, only once without Jeter scoring or driving in a run.
His key contributions also included:. In 15 postseason games Jeter slashed. The only trouble he encountered involved parking in Manhattan.
On the morning of the eve of the World Series, Jeter was flummoxed when he could not find his leased Mercury that he had parked the night before in front of his apartment building on Second Avenue. I know I parked it here. And sure enough, they towed it. Parking tickets. Lots of parking tickets, man. So they towed my car. I had never seen the Braves. The only time I saw the Braves was on television when I was younger. These are the world champions.
That stands out. Derek Jeter batted. Jeter played the biggest games with a preternatural calm. There was a consistency about him derived from the disciplined way he was raised by his parents, Dorothy and Charles, who met in in Frankfurt, Germany, while both were stationed there with the U.
When Jeter was 10 years old, he decided he would be the shortstop for the New York Yankees. Wallace , Orioles Jeffrey Hammonds and Reds Chad Mottola all passed on using one of the top five picks of the draft on the skinny shortstop from Kalamazoo Central High. He had played exclusively with a metal bat as an amateur. Jeter stood before a huge bin of wood bats.
One by one he picked out bats, holding them in his hands like a finicky shopper in the produce section, searching for the one that most resembled his high school bat in size, weight and taper. Jeter would go on to take 15, appearances as a professional, including his record in the postseason and 2, in the minors.
For every one of them he used the P In he moved to a inch, ounce P The model dated to , when it was created for Leslie Wayne Pinkham, a minor league catcher. Most players, to escape the clutches of a slump, to co-opt the karma of a hot-hitting teammate or simply to pursue the chance of something better, occasionally switch bat models. That Jeter used one model for 22 years spoke to his consistency of purpose, which especially served him well in his first postseason. I struck out before. You know, what is it?
You strike out? My mind always went to being successful and it went back to times when I had success. I was just never afraid of it. For me it was just another game. I liked the attention, the spotlight, that was on postseason games. No, no, no. I just approached it like any other game. How do you follow such a season, especially when companies begin lining up to secure Jeter as an endorser and the fan mail comes in boxloads?
Two months into the following season, Torre called Jeter into his office while the team was playing in Toronto. You think about all those things, and I just wanted to make sure his priorities were right.
