57
00:03:27,917 --> 00:03:30,157
{\an1}I was born and raised
in New Jersey.
58
00:03:30,253 --> 00:03:36,223
{\an1}Dorothy:
I was always like a protester
on social issues my whole life.
59
00:03:36,326 --> 00:03:40,266
{\an1}I did protest the Vietnam War
in high school.
60
00:03:40,363 --> 00:03:44,163
{\an1}When I got out of school,
my dad wanted all us girls
61
00:03:44,267 --> 00:03:46,707
{\an1}to go to Catholic colleges.
62
00:03:46,803 --> 00:03:48,673
{\an1}I didn’t want to be a nurse.
63
00:03:48,771 --> 00:03:50,242
{\an1}A lot of my friends
were drafted.
64
00:03:50,340 --> 00:03:51,840
{\an1}I said, "You know what?
I think I’ll go
65
00:03:51,941 --> 00:03:54,871
{\an1}and get the GI Bill
to pay for an education."
66
00:03:54,978 --> 00:03:57,788
{\an1}So that’s why I went
to the service, really,
67
00:03:57,881 --> 00:03:59,851
{\an1}to show my dad
I could do this on my own.
68
00:04:01,718 --> 00:04:04,928
{\an1}Dr. Charles: I grew up
in Montgomery, Alabama,
69
00:04:05,021 --> 00:04:09,391
{\an1}raised by my mother
and four sisters.
70
00:04:09,492 --> 00:04:12,232
{\an1}I played baseball
when I was in high school
71
00:04:12,328 --> 00:04:14,958
{\an1}and didn’t give much thought
to college,
72
00:04:15,064 --> 00:04:18,534
{\an1}and that didn’t sit too well
with my sister, Fran.
73
00:04:18,634 --> 00:04:20,375
{\an1}Education meant a lot.
74
00:04:20,470 --> 00:04:22,100
{\an1}We didn’t curse in our family,
75
00:04:22,205 --> 00:04:24,445
{\an1}and my sister went off
like I never heard.
76
00:04:24,541 --> 00:04:27,271
{\an1}She came up with some curse
words I’d never heard before.
77
00:04:27,377 --> 00:04:29,117
{\an1}My mother allowed her
to do that.
78
00:04:29,212 --> 00:04:31,882
{\an1}She let her go on and on
and I got it,
79
00:04:31,981 --> 00:04:34,250
{\an1}and I ended up
going to Fisk University.
80
00:04:34,350 --> 00:04:37,580
{\an1}Man: From these 40 acres,
Fisk has been seeding
81
00:04:37,687 --> 00:04:40,927
{\an1}the land with his sons
and daughters.
82
00:04:41,024 --> 00:04:43,124
{\an1}Dr. Charles: Well,
Fisk helped to shape me.
83
00:04:43,226 --> 00:04:46,266
{\an1}You know, as a Black man,
there’s something
84
00:04:46,362 --> 00:04:51,062
{\an1}about getting an education
at Black college.
85
00:04:51,167 --> 00:04:53,837
{\an1}A lot of things
were going on back then,
86
00:04:53,937 --> 00:04:56,107
{\an1}and I could be a part of it.
87
00:04:56,206 --> 00:05:01,146
{\an1}When I got out of college,
the U.S. Army called my number.
88
00:05:03,079 --> 00:05:06,779
{\an1}Dorothy:
I was stationed in Germany,
89
00:05:06,883 --> 00:05:10,323
{\an1}and of course I met Charles.
90
00:05:10,420 --> 00:05:12,790
{\an1}In Europe,
people are different.
91
00:05:12,889 --> 00:05:15,189
{\an1}It’s who you are that matters.
92
00:05:15,291 --> 00:05:17,191
{\an1}It’s not what you look like.
93
00:05:17,293 --> 00:05:21,493
{\an1}When we came back to the States,
different story.
94
00:05:21,598 --> 00:05:25,038
{\an1}A lot of people,
"Do you know what you’re doing?"
95
00:05:25,134 --> 00:05:28,374
{\an1}"What? Are you crazy?"
You know, that type of thing.
96
00:05:28,471 --> 00:05:33,811
{\an1}I don’t think anybody expected
me to marry a Black man.
97
00:05:33,910 --> 00:05:42,150
{\an1}I’ll be honest,
but I don’t think it was...
98
00:05:42,252 --> 00:05:43,982
{\an1}accepted.
99
00:05:46,956 --> 00:05:48,625
{\an1}When the kids were growing up,
100
00:05:48,725 --> 00:05:53,895
{\an1}It was tough because you want to
shelter them as much as you can,
101
00:05:53,997 --> 00:05:57,037
{\an1}but you don’t want
to smother them.
102
00:05:57,133 --> 00:05:59,133
{\an1}We brought both
our children up to say
103
00:05:59,235 --> 00:06:01,505
{\an1}You can be anyone
you want to be.
104
00:06:01,604 --> 00:06:04,544
{\an1}Don’t let anybody say
you cannot do something.
105
00:06:04,641 --> 00:06:06,471
{\an1}That was a curse word
in our house.
106
00:06:06,576 --> 00:06:09,216
{\an1}And that was something
that we blocked early on.
107
00:06:09,312 --> 00:06:11,142
{\an1}You know, don’t come in here
saying can’t,
108
00:06:11,247 --> 00:06:13,557
{\an1}it’s not allow.
109
00:06:13,650 --> 00:06:14,980
{\an1}Derek: There were positive.
110
00:06:15,084 --> 00:06:16,484
{\an1}You know, you can accomplish
anything you put
111
00:06:16,586 --> 00:06:18,326
{\an1}your mind to as long
as you work hard at it.
112
00:06:18,421 --> 00:06:20,991
{\an1}Sharlee: They taught us nothing
is going to come easy
113
00:06:21,090 --> 00:06:23,060
{\an1}and nothing’s going to be
for free
114
00:06:23,159 --> 00:06:26,059
{\an1}and not to want anything
that came easy to us.
115
00:06:26,162 --> 00:06:27,992
{\an1}Like, you shouldn’t
feel good about that.
116
00:06:28,097 --> 00:06:30,007
{\an1}Like, you should feel good
about really working hard
117
00:06:30,099 --> 00:06:32,199
{\an1}and earning something.
118
00:06:32,302 --> 00:06:34,732
{\an1}Dr. Charles: When children
are young, you start out
119
00:06:34,837 --> 00:06:37,877
{\an1}with that process
of setting the bar high.
120
00:06:37,974 --> 00:06:39,414
{\an1}Let them know, first of all,
121
00:06:39,509 --> 00:06:44,239
{\an1}that they are as good
or better than anybody.
122
00:06:44,347 --> 00:06:46,587
{\an1}Dorothy: Derek would be focused.
123
00:06:46,683 --> 00:06:49,223
{\an1}He were always,
when really young,
124
00:06:49,319 --> 00:06:51,379
{\an1}wanted to be a baseball player,
a baseball player.
125
00:06:51,487 --> 00:06:55,027
{\an1}As long as my mind
will allow me to go back,
126
00:06:55,124 --> 00:06:58,194
{\an1}that was the dream.
127
00:06:58,294 --> 00:06:59,564
{\an1}I started playing baseball
because,
128
00:06:59,662 --> 00:07:00,932
{\an1}you know,
my dad played baseball.
129
00:07:01,030 --> 00:07:03,600
{\an1}He was shortstop
at Fisk University.
130
00:07:05,902 --> 00:07:09,872
{\an1}He tells me all the time
that he was much better,
131
00:07:09,973 --> 00:07:11,973
{\an1}much better defensive player
than I was.
132
00:07:12,075 --> 00:07:13,715
{\an1}Dr. Charles:
And I was pretty good.
133
00:07:13,810 --> 00:07:16,110
{\an1}I was a good field,
no-hitter type of shortstop.
134
00:07:16,212 --> 00:07:19,952
{\an1}Derek: My dad never let me
win a thing, nothing.
135
00:07:20,049 --> 00:07:22,049
{\an1}I mean,
we’d be playing checkers.

137
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,620
{\an1}before I went to
a afternoon kindergarten class.
138
00:07:27,724 --> 00:07:29,324
{\an1}I just remember, I mean,
how am I supposed to know
139
00:07:29,425 --> 00:07:31,225
{\an1}the price of a microwave?
140
00:07:31,327 --> 00:07:33,397
{\an1}Dr. Charles: And I’d take
a great pride in
141
00:07:33,496 --> 00:07:35,166
{\an1}beating him on
"The Price Is Right,"
142
00:07:35,264 --> 00:07:36,904
{\an1}and love that wave
in way with my fist
143
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,560
{\an1}like I really beat somebody.
144
00:07:38,668 --> 00:07:39,908
{\an1}That was the lesson
he was teaching me
145
00:07:40,003 --> 00:07:41,573
{\an1}that life isn’t always fair.
146
00:07:41,671 --> 00:07:43,171
{\an1}You know, if you want something,
you have to work at it.
147
00:07:43,272 --> 00:07:44,672
{\an1}You know, it’s not going
to be given to you.
148

00:08:20,610 --> 00:08:23,280
{\an1}Man #2: Yankees
are the champions.
163
00:08:23,379 --> 00:08:27,349
{\an1}World champions
for the second year in a row.
164
00:08:27,450 --> 00:08:31,320
{\an1}Dorothy: She taught them all
how to play baseball.
165
00:08:31,421 --> 00:08:36,561
{\an1}My brother would drive them
to Yankee games.
166
00:08:36,659 --> 00:08:38,719
{\an1}Derek:
That was family time for us.
167
00:08:38,827 --> 00:08:41,368
{\an1}You know, finding something
that you love to do
168
00:08:41,464 --> 00:08:44,964
{\an1}and then finding a team
that you love to root for.
169
00:08:45,068 --> 00:08:47,978
{\an1}That’s how we got a little bit
closer over our love affair
170
00:08:48,071 --> 00:08:49,801
{\an1}with the New York Yankees.
171
00:08:49,906 --> 00:08:52,976
{\an1}As long as I can remember,
I wanted to be shortstop
172
00:08:53,076 --> 00:08:55,076
{\an1}for the New York Yankees.
173
00:08:55,178 --> 00:09:00,388
{\an1}I looked up to all the Yankees,
Donnie and Willie, Reggie.
174
00:09:00,483 --> 00:09:04,383
{\an1}I mean, all the Yankees,
but Dave was my guy.
175
00:09:04,487 --> 00:09:06,727
{\an1}Man: 3-1 pitch to Winfield.
176
00:09:06,823 --> 00:09:08,893
{\an1}And deep to right center field.
177
00:09:08,991 --> 00:09:11,321
{\an1}Way back! Bye-bye!
178
00:09:11,427 --> 00:09:14,267
{\an1}Derek: Dave Winfield was
my favorite player.
179
00:09:14,363 --> 00:09:17,833
{\an1}Drafted in all three sports,
six foot six, larger than life.
180
00:09:17,934 --> 00:09:20,404
{\an1}Man: Winfield right
on the money, and got him.
181
00:09:20,503 --> 00:09:23,603
{\an1}Dave Winfield, a perfect throw.
182
00:09:23,706 --> 00:09:26,216
{\an1}I was playing for the Yankees,
and they came
183
00:09:26,309 --> 00:09:29,009
{\an1}to a game in Detroit
184
00:09:29,112 --> 00:09:31,712
{\an1}and they happened
to be by the bus
185
00:09:31,814 --> 00:09:33,954
{\an1}as we were about to leave town.
186
00:09:34,050 --> 00:09:36,220
{\an1}I stopped and spoke briefly
187
00:09:36,319 --> 00:09:39,249
{\an1}and touched base
with Derek and his dad.
188
00:09:39,355 --> 00:09:42,225
{\an1}You never know
how a moment in time
189
00:09:42,325 --> 00:09:45,365
{\an1}just being the player I was,
the person I was,
190
00:09:45,461 --> 00:09:48,191
{\an1}that one way or another,
you’ve impacted their life.
191
00:09:48,297 --> 00:09:49,967
{\an1}Man: Winfield’s offensive
exploits
192
00:09:50,066 --> 00:09:51,936
{\an1}and willingness to hustle
on every play
193
00:09:52,034 --> 00:09:53,804
{\an1}has made him a fan favorite,
194
00:09:53,903 --> 00:09:57,403
{\an1}a favorite, that is, to every
fan except George Steinbrenner.
195
00:09:57,507 --> 00:09:59,377
{\an1}Dave Winfield once again
finds himself
196
00:09:59,475 --> 00:10:01,545
{\an1}doing combat
with George Steinbrenner.
197
00:10:01,644 --> 00:10:03,884
{\an1}This is certainly no new story.
198
00:10:03,980 --> 00:10:06,880
{\an1}I was aware.
Yeah, I was aware.
199
00:10:06,983 --> 00:10:09,753
{\an1}I didn’t want any details,
so I never went out of my way
200
00:10:09,852 --> 00:10:12,552
{\an1}to try to find out
what went on with the two
201
00:10:12,655 --> 00:10:14,325
{\an1}and I never asked
either one of them.
202
00:10:14,423 --> 00:10:16,793
{\an1}Maybe it’s because
I just don’t want to know.
203
00:10:16,893 --> 00:10:18,793
{\an1}Man: Dave Winfield becomes
the highest paid
204
00:10:18,895 --> 00:10:20,435
{\an1}athlete in sports today.
205
00:10:20,530 --> 00:10:22,560
{\an1}There’s only one problem
with making the most money.
206
00:10:22,665 --> 00:10:24,735
{\an1}When you’re harnessed up
and you’re the team
207
00:10:24,834 --> 00:10:29,104
{\an1}that pulls the cart, your fanny
sticks up the highest
208
00:10:29,205 --> 00:10:31,945
{\an1}and you feel the whip
more often, right?
209
00:10:32,041 --> 00:10:34,571
{\an1}Man: That’s right.
All eyes are on you.
210
00:10:34,677 --> 00:10:37,187
{\an1}You get whipped
a little more often.
211
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:38,510
{\an1}But you can handle it.
You got a big fanny.
212
00:10:38,614 --> 00:10:40,414
{\an1}Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
I can handle it.
213
00:10:40,516 --> 00:10:43,686
{\an1}Winfield: I do know what caused
the issues
214
00:10:43,786 --> 00:10:46,156
{\an1}between George Steinbrenner
and I.
215
00:10:46,255 --> 00:10:48,155
{\an1}I had to file a lawsuit
216
00:10:48,257 --> 00:10:52,327
{\an1}because they weren’t
paying up the money
217
00:10:52,428 --> 00:10:54,758
{\an1}that was owed to me
in my contract.
218
00:10:54,864 --> 00:10:57,134
{\an1}Man: The boss has been attacking
Winfield ever since
219
00:10:57,233 --> 00:10:59,973
{\an1}his dismal 1981
World Series performance.
220
00:11:00,069 --> 00:11:01,869
{\an1}Man #2: Calling him Mr. May,
and claiming
221
00:11:01,971 --> 00:11:03,971
{\an1}that he wasn’t a winner.
222
00:11:04,073 --> 00:11:09,643
{\an1}Sherman:
When George decided you were
an enemy, somebody to go after,
223
00:11:09,745 --> 00:11:11,385
{\an1}it never really left.
224
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,450
{\an1}Like, he was relentless.
225
00:11:14,550 --> 00:11:17,320
{\an1}The kind of people who would get
George’s ear consistently
226
00:11:17,420 --> 00:11:20,450
{\an1}might not be the finest
churchgoing folk in the world.
227
00:11:20,556 --> 00:11:22,666
{\an1}Howard Spira is a name
you’re going to be hearing a lot
228
00:11:22,758 --> 00:11:24,058
{\an1}over the next several months.
229
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,790
{\an1}He received $40,000
from George Steinbrenner
230
00:11:26,896 --> 00:11:29,306
{\an1}in exchange for information
on Dave Winfield.
231
00:11:29,398 --> 00:11:32,468
{\an1}I gave George all
the information and all the dirt
232
00:11:32,568 --> 00:11:34,298
{\an1}that he needed to destroy
Dave Winfield
233
00:11:34,403 --> 00:11:35,673
{\an1}and his reputation.
234
00:11:35,771 --> 00:11:38,371
{\an1}You know, his obsession
with Winfield
235
00:11:38,474 --> 00:11:40,814
{\an1}ends up costing him the team.
236
00:11:40,910 --> 00:11:43,340
{\an1}Sterling: It is 1-0 Yankees.
We’re in the top of the fourth.
237
00:11:43,446 --> 00:11:44,886
{\an1}I don’t know how to exactly
report this
238
00:11:44,981 --> 00:11:47,751
{\an1}while doing a ball game,
but I’m going to try.
239
00:11:47,850 --> 00:11:50,680
{\an1}Yankee owner George Steinbrenner
had agreed to resign
240
00:11:50,786 --> 00:11:53,496
{\an1}as managing general partner
of the club
241
00:11:53,589 --> 00:11:56,689
{\an1}for his dealings
with gambler Howard Spira.
242
00:11:56,792 --> 00:12:00,062
{\an1}And that means that there
will be someone new
243
00:12:00,162 --> 00:12:01,592
{\an1}to run the Yankees.
244
00:12:01,697 --> 00:12:04,507
{\an1}You’re hearing fans
applaud the decision.
245
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,370
{\an1}Isn’t this amazing?
246
00:12:06,469 --> 00:12:07,899
{\an1}[ Cheers and applause ]
247
00:12:08,004 --> 00:12:11,904
{\an1}♪
248
00:12:12,008 --> 00:12:14,378
{\an1}I thought I’d come down
for a few moments to show you
249
00:12:14,477 --> 00:12:16,217
{\an1}that I am not remorseful.
250
00:12:16,312 --> 00:12:19,112
{\an1}I am not in shock.
251
00:12:19,215 --> 00:12:22,955
{\an1}Actually, I feel
pretty good about things,
252
00:12:23,052 --> 00:12:24,252
{\an1}but our new general manager
and vice president
253
00:12:24,353 --> 00:12:25,723
{\an1}will be Gene Michael.
254
00:12:25,821 --> 00:12:28,751
{\an1}I couldn’t be happier
than I am with this man.
255
00:12:31,294 --> 00:12:33,534
{\an1}That decision that George
makes on the way out
256
00:12:33,629 --> 00:12:35,458
{\an1}with Stick is a big deal.
257
00:12:35,564 --> 00:12:38,534
{\an1}Stick had a baseball
savantism to him.
258
00:12:38,634 --> 00:12:41,134
{\an1}You know, you might not wanted
to talk about politics
259
00:12:41,237 --> 00:12:42,877
{\an1}or current events
with Gene Michael,
260
00:12:42,972 --> 00:12:44,872
{\an1}but Gene Michael could look
at a baseball player
261
00:12:44,974 --> 00:12:46,744
{\an1}and know a lot about him.
262
00:12:53,382 --> 00:12:55,782
{\an1}Man, our team at Kal Central,
and I say this respectfully,
263
00:12:55,885 --> 00:12:57,925
{\an1}we were not good at all.
264
00:13:00,423 --> 00:13:02,593
{\an1}Even our little league
all-star teams.
265
00:13:02,692 --> 00:13:05,062
{\an1}You know, the dream was to go to
the Little League World Series.
266
00:13:05,161 --> 00:13:09,961
{\an1}Now, we never even won a game
in Little League All Stars.
267
00:13:10,066 --> 00:13:13,276
{\an1}Schwarz: There’s a skepticism
against the cold weather
268
00:13:13,369 --> 00:13:14,969
{\an1}high school player.
269
00:13:15,071 --> 00:13:18,401
{\an1}How many talented players
are you really playing against?
270
00:13:18,507 --> 00:13:24,447
{\an1}How many 92 mile an hour
fastballs are you really facing?
271
00:13:24,547 --> 00:13:27,517
{\an1}Derek: You know, a lot of people
laugh and say, you know,
272
00:13:27,616 --> 00:13:30,086
{\an1}no one from Kalamazoo was going
to make it to the Major Leagues.
273
00:13:30,186 --> 00:13:31,626
{\an1}No one from Kalamazoo
was going to play shortstop
274
00:13:31,721 --> 00:13:33,351
{\an1}for the New York Yankees.
275
00:13:33,456 --> 00:13:34,656
{\an1}And I’m, you know, you’re like,
"Who the [bleep] are you?"
276
00:13:34,757 --> 00:13:35,967
{\an1}You know what I mean?
You can’t do it.
277
00:13:36,058 --> 00:13:38,618
{\an1}You gonna tell me I can’t do it,
you know?
278
00:13:38,728 --> 00:13:41,998
{\an1}Sorry, you can’t reach my dream,
but I am.
279
00:13:42,098 --> 00:13:45,268
{\an1}And I’m going to do everything
in my power to prove you wrong.
280
00:13:47,203 --> 00:13:50,603
{\an1}Some people don’t like when
you say you can’t do something.
281
00:13:50,706 --> 00:13:52,816
{\an1}I love it personally
because I’ll prove you wrong,
282
00:13:52,908 --> 00:13:55,338
{\an1}and I’m a big
I-told-you-so person.
283
00:13:55,444 --> 00:13:57,114
{\an1}And when I see you,
I’ll say I told you.
284
00:13:57,213 --> 00:13:59,043
{\an1}You know what I mean?
That’s just how I’m wired.
285
00:13:59,148 --> 00:14:03,858
{\an1}♪
286
00:14:03,953 --> 00:14:05,553
{\an1}Hinga: He’s 15 years old.
287
00:14:05,654 --> 00:14:08,854
{\an1}He’s got a gold NY necklace
that he wears.
288
00:14:08,958 --> 00:14:10,628
{\an1}He would tell you
I’m going to be
289
00:14:10,726 --> 00:14:12,666
{\an1}the shortstop
for the Yankees.
290
00:14:12,762 --> 00:14:14,162
{\an1}And it wasn’t bragging.
291
00:14:14,263 --> 00:14:16,803
{\an1}It was just matter of fact.
292
00:14:16,899 --> 00:14:21,469
{\an1}At the time, my impression was
you’re crazy.
293
00:14:21,570 --> 00:14:23,640
{\an1}Dorothy: If he wants the dream,
who am I?
294
00:14:23,739 --> 00:14:28,809
{\an1}Who am I to tell him
you can’t be a baseball player?
295
00:14:28,911 --> 00:14:32,751
{\an1}When teachers or friends say,
296
00:14:32,848 --> 00:14:34,378
{\an1}"Hey, you got to feed
these kids,
297
00:14:34,483 --> 00:14:37,223
{\an1}you know, realistic
thoughts," like,
298
00:14:37,319 --> 00:14:39,919
{\an1}what the heck
are you talking about?
299
00:14:40,022 --> 00:14:42,152
{\an1}Sharlee: Our parents instilled
early on always
300
00:14:42,258 --> 00:14:43,668
{\an1}that we had to work harder.
301
00:14:43,759 --> 00:14:47,189
{\an1}So if all your friends
have to do, you know,
302
00:14:47,296 --> 00:14:49,166
{\an1}two nights a week on their own,
303
00:14:49,265 --> 00:14:51,605
{\an1}then you’ve got to do it three
or four times a week
304
00:14:51,700 --> 00:14:55,000
{\an1}to prove to your coach
that you’re just as good.
305
00:14:55,104 --> 00:14:57,344
{\an1}Biro: We had to endure some
cold, cold winters.
306
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,010
{\an1}He had this contraption in his
garage way where he hit the ball
307
00:15:01,110 --> 00:15:02,570
{\an1}and, you know, there’d be a net.
308
00:15:02,678 --> 00:15:05,378
{\an1}Be in there countless hours.
309
00:15:05,481 --> 00:15:06,851
{\an1}You know, if you if you got
to his house
310
00:15:06,949 --> 00:15:08,709
{\an1}and he hadn’t finished that,
you know,
311
00:15:08,818 --> 00:15:13,958
{\an1}you knew, hey, he’s gonna finish
getting his reps in.
312
00:15:14,056 --> 00:15:16,626
{\an1}I’m hyper focused, man,
and that’s on anything.
313
00:15:16,725 --> 00:15:19,395
{\an1}I set my mind to someone,
and I’ll do anything
314
00:15:19,495 --> 00:15:21,365
{\an1}to make it happen.
315
00:15:21,464 --> 00:15:23,904
{\an1}"USA Today" every year
would have the high school
316
00:15:23,999 --> 00:15:25,429
{\an1}all-American team.
317
00:15:25,534 --> 00:15:27,074
{\an1}And I would tell my parents,
I said,
318
00:15:27,169 --> 00:15:29,369
{\an1}"I’m going to be
on this one day."
319
00:15:29,472 --> 00:15:32,102
{\an1}Johnny Damon was the number one
rated high school player.
320
00:15:32,208 --> 00:15:35,218
{\an1}I didn’t know Johnny,
but his name now is in my head.
321
00:15:35,311 --> 00:15:37,111
{\an1}So it’s like, you know,
322
00:15:37,213 --> 00:15:39,383
{\an1}alright, well, I’m going to
get up there where Johnny is.
323
00:15:42,318 --> 00:15:43,628
{\an1}I was always going
to set a goal,
324
00:15:43,719 --> 00:15:45,249
{\an1}and I was going
to set a goal high.
325
00:15:45,354 --> 00:15:47,254
{\an1}I didn’t want to be
the best player in Kalamazoo,
326
00:15:47,356 --> 00:15:49,566
{\an1}didn’t want to be
the best player in Michigan.
327
00:15:49,658 --> 00:15:52,388
{\an1}I wanted to be the best player
in high school baseball,
328
00:15:52,495 --> 00:15:55,195
{\an1}and I was able to do it.
329
00:15:57,233 --> 00:15:59,573
{\an1}Man: Derek Jeter from Kalamazoo
Central High School.
330
00:15:59,668 --> 00:16:01,168
{\an1}He’s another kid
with a bright future,
331
00:16:01,270 --> 00:16:03,070
{\an1}says the scouts.
332
00:16:03,172 --> 00:16:06,742
{\an1}Derek: I always loved playing
in front of people.
333
00:16:06,842 --> 00:16:09,242
{\an1}People, period.
I don’t care if you were a scout
334
00:16:09,345 --> 00:16:11,015
{\an1}or you were just fan.
335
00:16:11,113 --> 00:16:12,913
{\an1}I felt like I was performing.
336
00:16:13,015 --> 00:16:16,185
{\an1}♪
337
00:16:16,285 --> 00:16:18,025
{\an1}And the more people, the better.
338
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,990
{\an1}Gave me a chance to show off,
right?
339
00:16:20,089 --> 00:16:21,419
{\an1}Everybody’s watching now.
340
00:16:21,524 --> 00:16:23,664
{\an1}Man: Scouts from 20
major league teams.
341
00:16:23,759 --> 00:16:25,419
{\an1}Morgan: I started writing
about Derek
342
00:16:25,528 --> 00:16:27,268
{\an1}when he started
getting national acclaim.
343
00:16:27,363 --> 00:16:30,863
{\an1}Totally impressed with all
his physical and mental tools.
344
00:16:30,966 --> 00:16:34,836
{\an1}Well-rounded academically
as well as athletically.
345
00:16:34,937 --> 00:16:36,607
{\an1}Phenomenal basketball player.
346
00:16:36,705 --> 00:16:37,875
{\an1}I mean, he certainly could
have been a college player.
347
00:16:37,973 --> 00:16:39,443
{\an1}He could throw it up
from anywhere.
348
00:16:39,542 --> 00:16:41,242
{\an1}There was never a shot
that he didn’t like.
349
00:16:44,113 --> 00:16:45,343
{\an1}Man: Got it, got it, got it.
Put a dagger on it, Derek.
350
00:16:45,447 --> 00:16:46,787
{\an1}Alright.
351
00:16:46,882 --> 00:16:49,212
{\an1}Morgan: He showed outstanding
instincts,
352
00:16:49,318 --> 00:16:53,628
{\an1}and what we later saw
to be grace at shortstop,
353
00:16:53,722 --> 00:16:59,022
{\an1}and he exuded that in a way
that most kids don’t.
354
00:16:59,128 --> 00:17:02,668
{\an1}Man:
We know that Derek has a lot
of talent as far as baseball.
355
00:17:02,765 --> 00:17:05,035
{\an1}[ Crowd cheering ]
356
00:17:05,133 --> 00:17:07,034
{\an1}What a lot of people
don’t know is that
357
00:17:07,136 --> 00:17:11,106
{\an1}Derek is a better person
than he is a ballplayer.
358
00:17:11,106 --> 00:17:19,716
{\an1}"Covering Ground"
is presented by T-Mobile.
359
00:17:19,814 --> 00:17:22,715
{\an1}The most important thing for me
as a director
360
00:17:22,818 --> 00:17:24,048
{\an1}when I’m conducting interviews
361
00:17:24,152 --> 00:17:25,983
{\an1}was to make it feel
conversational.
362
00:17:26,088 --> 00:17:28,388
{\an1}I knew that Derek Jeter
was comfortable
363
00:17:28,489 --> 00:17:30,560
{\an1}was when I could see him
on the chair.
364
00:17:30,659 --> 00:17:32,559
{\an1}He just had
different body language
365
00:17:32,661 --> 00:17:34,861
{\an1}and his body was looser.
366
00:17:34,964 --> 00:17:36,734
{\an1}Could tell he trusted me
and that he knew
367
00:17:36,832 --> 00:17:40,232
{\an1}that I wanted his truth
and his perspective.
368
00:17:40,336 --> 00:17:45,276
{\an1}♪
369
00:17:45,374 --> 00:17:47,774
{\an1}Man: Going back [indistinct]
don’t fall.
370
00:17:47,876 --> 00:17:49,946
{\an1}Oh, he dropped the ball.
371
00:17:50,045 --> 00:17:51,485
{\an1}Kay: It was rough times.
372
00:17:51,580 --> 00:17:54,150
{\an1}Man: A season better forgotten
by the Yankees.
373
00:17:54,249 --> 00:17:56,279
{\an1}Kay: When George Steinbrenner
was suspended,
374
00:17:56,385 --> 00:17:59,995
{\an1}you know, the organization
was kind of in an abyss.
375
00:18:00,089 --> 00:18:01,949
{\an1}Man: He would be late
getting to the ballpark.
376
00:18:02,057 --> 00:18:05,067
{\an1}Sherman:
Mel Hall showed up in the
clubhouse with two cougar cubs.
377
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,130
{\an1}Pascal Perez decided not
to show up for spring training.
378
00:18:08,230 --> 00:18:10,130
{\an1}He was playing dominoes
in the Dominican
379
00:18:10,232 --> 00:18:13,232
{\an1}when they found him
drinking a beer.
380
00:18:13,335 --> 00:18:16,705
{\an1}Williams: When I came on to
the team in the early ’90s,
381
00:18:16,805 --> 00:18:18,405
{\an1}it was a tough environment.
382
00:18:18,507 --> 00:18:23,987
{\an1}I did feel a certain amount of,
you know, tough love.
383
00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:26,349
{\an1}Players that have
a profound impact,
384
00:18:26,448 --> 00:18:28,908
{\an1}one Mr. Don Mattingly.
385
00:18:29,018 --> 00:18:32,028
{\an1}He was one
of my biggest advocates.
386
00:18:32,121 --> 00:18:33,321
{\an1}Kay: Man, did I look up to him.
387
00:18:33,422 --> 00:18:35,152
{\an1}I mean,
he was our shining light.
388
00:18:35,257 --> 00:18:37,697
{\an1}He just carried himself
the way you’d want
389
00:18:37,793 --> 00:18:40,393
{\an1}the face of your franchise
to carry himself.
390
00:18:40,496 --> 00:18:43,066
{\an1}There were some lean years there
for a little bit,
391
00:18:43,165 --> 00:18:45,005
{\an1}to say at the least.
392
00:18:45,100 --> 00:18:46,670
{\an1}But I think Stick
in development,
393
00:18:46,769 --> 00:18:49,839
{\an1}you know, that dynamic
changed a little bit.
394
00:18:49,938 --> 00:18:53,568
{\an1}Gene Michael held essentially
every job you could hold
395
00:18:53,676 --> 00:18:55,546
{\an1}in the Yankees organization.
396
00:18:55,644 --> 00:18:57,944
{\an1}And the thing that I think
Stick did as well
397
00:18:58,047 --> 00:19:00,357
{\an1}as anyone was evaluate talent.
398
00:19:00,449 --> 00:19:04,419
{\an1}This guy saw things
that other people didn’t see.
399
00:19:06,555 --> 00:19:08,625
{\an1}Cashman: He was obviously
assessing the five tool package
400
00:19:08,724 --> 00:19:10,394
{\an1}that you hear scouts
typically talk of,
401
00:19:10,492 --> 00:19:13,092
{\an1}but then he’d go
to that sixth arena --
402
00:19:13,195 --> 00:19:16,565
{\an1}makeup and competitive nature
and intellect.
403
00:19:16,665 --> 00:19:19,205
{\an1}Ability to focus and concentrate
was a big word
404
00:19:19,301 --> 00:19:22,131
{\an1}he would always use,
was the word concentrate.
405
00:19:22,237 --> 00:19:24,577
{\an1}With George Steinbrenner
being suspended by baseball
406
00:19:24,673 --> 00:19:27,273
{\an1}for a couple of years,
So his hands were out, right?
407
00:19:27,376 --> 00:19:29,376
{\an1}His dirty hands
were out of the pie.
408
00:19:29,478 --> 00:19:31,748
{\an1}So now they’re drafting guys
like Bernie,
409
00:19:31,847 --> 00:19:36,117
{\an1}Mariano, Pettitte, Posada
410
00:19:36,218 --> 00:19:38,078
{\an1}and they’re stockpiling
this young talent,
411
00:19:38,187 --> 00:19:39,797
{\an1}which, you know, George wouldn’t
have wanted to do.
412
00:19:39,888 --> 00:19:42,248
{\an1}He wanted to, you know,
he would want to get big stars
413
00:19:42,357 --> 00:19:45,167
{\an1}from other teams right away
and make us winners again.
414
00:19:45,260 --> 00:19:49,090
{\an1}And you had two figures
the top of those chains,
415
00:19:49,198 --> 00:19:51,408
{\an1}Gene Michael knew
how to acquire talent,
416
00:19:51,500 --> 00:19:54,330
{\an1}Buck Showalter knew
how to mold talent.
417
00:19:54,436 --> 00:19:56,676
{\an1}Showalter: Stick was so far
ahead of his time.
418
00:19:56,772 --> 00:19:59,142
{\an1}We had so many guys that got it.
419
00:19:59,241 --> 00:20:02,241
{\an1}They could see it in a player.
420
00:20:02,344 --> 00:20:04,914
{\an1}And with Derek, I heard
a lot of people talk
421
00:20:05,013 --> 00:20:07,753
{\an1}and I’d watch some tape
and I’d seen reports.
422
00:20:07,850 --> 00:20:10,480
{\an1}I loved all
the peripheral stuff about him.
423
00:20:10,586 --> 00:20:13,696
{\an1}I remember how impressed I was
with his mom and dad, you know,
424
00:20:13,789 --> 00:20:16,149
{\an1}and knowing the backbone,
they both had to have.
425
00:20:16,258 --> 00:20:17,658
{\an1}You know,
an interracial marriage.
426
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,630
{\an1}And I was going, okay,
there’s so many things
427
00:20:19,728 --> 00:20:21,658
{\an1}that challenge guys
in the big leagues
428
00:20:21,764 --> 00:20:24,464
{\an1}and so many things that
challenged in the New York City.
429
00:20:24,566 --> 00:20:27,776
{\an1}I felt that Derek had a chance
to really not have
430
00:20:27,870 --> 00:20:31,440
{\an1}that be a factor in his life
because of his upbringing.
431
00:20:31,540 --> 00:20:33,470
{\an1}Okay, if we’re ready to go then
432
00:20:33,575 --> 00:20:36,785
{\an1}with the first round,
1992 draft.
433
00:20:36,879 --> 00:20:39,709
{\an1}Olney: The Yankees looked
at Derek as being clearly,
434
00:20:39,815 --> 00:20:42,515
{\an1}you know, one of
the best players in the draft.
435
00:20:42,618 --> 00:20:45,828
{\an1}And at the outset of that draft,
there wasn’t a lot of hope
436
00:20:45,921 --> 00:20:47,991
{\an1}in their eyes that he was going
to fall to them.
437
00:20:48,090 --> 00:20:50,390
{\an1}[ Indistinct conversation ]
438
00:20:50,492 --> 00:20:52,692
{\an1}Derek: Back then,
things were different.
439
00:20:52,795 --> 00:20:55,795
{\an1}It’s not televised,
it’s not a big deal.
440
00:20:55,898 --> 00:20:58,208
{\an1}You get a phone call.
441
00:20:59,902 --> 00:21:04,142
{\an1}I told all of my friends
and relatives don’t call
442
00:21:04,239 --> 00:21:08,209
{\an1}at this certain period of time
because I hope to get a call.
443
00:21:08,310 --> 00:21:10,580
{\an1}I was supposed, right?
444
00:21:10,679 --> 00:21:14,579
{\an1}Supposed to be drafted first
or fifth is what I was told.
445
00:21:14,683 --> 00:21:17,523
{\an1}The Houston Astros
have the number one pick.
446
00:21:17,619 --> 00:21:20,219
{\an1}A scout who covered that area
was Hal Newhouser,
447
00:21:20,322 --> 00:21:21,922
{\an1}a very respected scout.
448
00:21:22,024 --> 00:21:26,934
{\an1}Hal Newhouser was
a two-time MVP, 1944 and 45.
449
00:21:27,029 --> 00:21:30,599
{\an1}Cal Newhouser told
the Astros Derek Jeter
450
00:21:30,699 --> 00:21:33,729
{\an1}is going to be the centerpiece
of championship teams
451
00:21:33,836 --> 00:21:35,676
{\an1}for years to come.
452
00:21:35,771 --> 00:21:38,671
{\an1}Man #1: Houston selects Nevin,
Phillip, J.,
453
00:21:38,774 --> 00:21:41,914
{\an1}a third baseman from Cal State
University in Fullerton.
454
00:21:42,010 --> 00:21:43,210
{\an1}Man #2: First pick
is to Houston.
455
00:21:43,312 --> 00:21:45,612
{\an1}It’s Phillip J. Nevin.
456
00:21:45,714 --> 00:21:49,014
{\an1}Olney: Hal said
If I can’t convince that team
457
00:21:49,117 --> 00:21:50,557
{\an1}to take Derek Jeter,
458
00:21:50,652 --> 00:21:53,222
{\an1}I can’t convince
anybody of anything.
459
00:21:53,322 --> 00:21:55,392
{\an1}And so after about
50 years in baseball,
460
00:21:55,490 --> 00:21:57,420
{\an1}he just decided to retire.
461
00:21:57,526 --> 00:21:59,296
{\an1}Man #2: Cleveland.
462
00:21:59,394 --> 00:22:02,534
{\an1}Cleveland selected Shuey,
right-handed pitcher
463
00:22:02,631 --> 00:22:04,561
{\an1}from University
of North Carolina.
464
00:22:04,666 --> 00:22:05,966
{\an1}Montreal.
465
00:22:06,068 --> 00:22:08,308
{\an1}Montreal selects
Billy Wallace,
466
00:22:08,403 --> 00:22:11,873
{\an1}left-handed pitcher,
Mississippi State University.
467
00:22:11,974 --> 00:22:13,614
{\an1}Baltimore.
468
00:22:13,709 --> 00:22:16,879
{\an1}Baltimore selects
Hammonds, Jeffrey, B.,
469
00:22:16,979 --> 00:22:18,409
{\an1}Stanford University.
470
00:22:18,513 --> 00:22:20,913
{\an1}Jeffrey B Hammonds.
471
00:22:21,016 --> 00:22:23,486
{\an1}Sherman: They get to number
five, it’s the Cincinnati Reds.
472
00:22:23,585 --> 00:22:26,725
{\an1}Gene Bennett had scouted
that area.
473
00:22:26,822 --> 00:22:28,792
{\an1}He sees Jeter.
He’s like, this is perfect.

{\an1}This is Barry Larkin 2.

{\an1}At the same exact time,
the Yankee draft room
482
00:22:49,411 --> 00:22:51,781
{\an1}explodes in cheers.
483
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,780
{\an1}The teams were
picking college players
484
00:22:54,883 --> 00:22:59,183
{\an1}instead of going for Derek
as the top high school player.
485
00:22:59,288 --> 00:23:00,698
{\an1}I called the house.
486

{\an1}Derek: I got a phone call
from Paul Morgan,
487
00:23:03,558 --> 00:23:07,328
{\an1}and he said, well, the first
five picks have been announced
488
00:23:07,429 --> 00:23:09,529
{\an1}and my heart just sunk.
489

{\an1}Because I’m like, I’m supposed
to go first to fifth.
490
00:23:12,067 --> 00:23:16,107

and I went in the bathroom.

Honestly, I had no idea

{\an1}The Yankees.
How you doing?

{\an1}The Yankees.
Thank you, thank you.
513

{\an1}sitting around waiting
for phone calls, so...

{\an1}Uh-huh.
516
00:24:25,207 --> 00:24:27,177
{\an1}Sharlee: I remember I had
come home from school,
517
00:24:27,275 --> 00:24:28,845
{\an1}and then I had taken a nap,
518
00:24:28,944 --> 00:24:30,744
{\an1}just had fallen asleep
and then got up.
519
00:24:30,846 --> 00:24:33,356
{\an1}So it was like kind of
like almost, like, being in a --

{\an1}in a dream state.
521
00:24:35,317 --> 00:24:37,387
{\an1}It shocked all of us.
522
00:24:37,486 --> 00:24:39,226
{\an1}All growing up,
all I saw him in
523
00:24:39,321 --> 00:24:41,521
{\an1}was Yankee hats
and Yankee jackets.
524
00:24:41,623 --> 00:24:42,853
{\an1}That’s all he wore out.

Alright.

{\an1}Man: Derek Jeter
turned 18 years old
531
00:24:57,372 --> 00:24:59,602
{\an1}just after he graduated
from high school.
532
00:24:59,708 --> 00:25:02,878

worked him out at the stadium

at shortstop.

I’ve really realized it yet.

I’ll sit down and said, "Wow."

the New York press.

when he thought he’d make it

{\an1}to the big leagues
as he posed with the bat,

{\an1}When Charles was a student,
trying to move from, like,
631
00:29:33,081 --> 00:29:37,881
{\an1}family housing at the university
to a better apartment.
632
00:29:37,986 --> 00:29:40,156
{\an1}So we went to
this place together,
633
00:29:40,255 --> 00:29:43,525
{\an1}and all of a sudden
there was no room in the inn.
634
00:29:43,625 --> 00:29:46,165
{\an1}A friend of mine said,
"No, no, I just called.
635
00:29:46,261 --> 00:29:48,891
{\an1}There’s availability.
Go by yourself."
636
00:29:48,997 --> 00:29:52,337
{\an1}So I went, they never checked,
we got in.
637
00:29:52,434 --> 00:29:55,034
{\an1}Sharlee: I know things that she
went through when she first
638
00:29:55,136 --> 00:29:56,676
{\an1}started working
at a corporate job,
639
00:29:56,771 --> 00:29:59,871
{\an1}not being able to put
her family photo out,
640
00:29:59,974 --> 00:30:01,444
{\an1}being asked to take it down,
641
00:30:01,543 --> 00:30:04,683
{\an1}people not accepting her family.
642
00:30:04,779 --> 00:30:06,849
{\an1}It’s much different now.
643
00:30:06,948 --> 00:30:09,848
{\an1}It’s come a long way,
but what I remember of it
644
00:30:09,951 --> 00:30:13,221
{\an1}was just a very small town.
645
00:30:13,321 --> 00:30:16,921
{\an1}In the Midwest,
Racism can come in many forms.
646
00:30:17,025 --> 00:30:19,865
{\an1}Some places you go
and it’s obvious,
647
00:30:19,961 --> 00:30:21,131
{\an1}it’s in your face.
648
00:30:21,229 --> 00:30:23,629
{\an1}Midwestern racism,
it’s so subtle.
649
00:30:23,732 --> 00:30:25,302
{\an1}Housing discrimination.
650
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,970
{\an1}I’ll hire you, but I’m not going
to pay you well.
651
00:30:28,069 --> 00:30:30,269
{\an1}You know,
my kid can be cool with you,
652
00:30:30,372 --> 00:30:32,742
{\an1}but you can’t come
over our house.
653
00:30:32,841 --> 00:30:36,111
{\an1}Dr. Charles: Young people
are very observant of things
654
00:30:36,211 --> 00:30:40,881
{\an1}when they are with their parents
and they go into a place
655
00:30:40,982 --> 00:30:43,482
{\an1}why people, everybody
is staring at them,
656
00:30:43,585 --> 00:30:46,785
{\an1}and they understand
what’s going on there.
657
00:30:46,888 --> 00:30:48,488
{\an1}Derek: You know, when I’m out
and about,
658
00:30:48,590 --> 00:30:50,560
{\an1}I’m constantly looking around,
and someone said to me,
659
00:30:50,658 --> 00:30:52,158
{\an1}"Why are you always
looking around?
660
00:30:52,260 --> 00:30:53,790
{\an1}You know, you always seem like
you’re not focused,
661
00:30:53,895 --> 00:30:55,895
{\an1}you’re not paying attention."
662
00:30:55,997 --> 00:30:57,637
{\an1}And I just thought back
to I always,
663
00:30:57,732 --> 00:30:59,102
{\an1}since I was very young,
664
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,500
{\an1}I had so many people
staring at me, right?
665
00:31:01,603 --> 00:31:04,643
{\an1}So I would always be looking to
see who’s who was looking at me.
666
00:31:04,739 --> 00:31:06,739
{\an1}I was the one they’d be like,
"Who are you looking at?
667
00:31:06,841 --> 00:31:11,141
{\an1}You’re rude."
Like, stop looking at us.
668
00:31:11,246 --> 00:31:13,586
{\an1}Derek: My parents did a great
job of setting us down
669
00:31:13,681 --> 00:31:16,751
{\an1}and saying, look,
you’re going to get looks.
670
00:31:16,851 --> 00:31:18,121
{\an1}People are going to
treat you different.
671
00:31:18,219 --> 00:31:19,779
{\an1}You’re going to deal
with racism.
672
00:31:19,888 --> 00:31:22,158
{\an1}You’re going to deal
with prejudice.
673
00:31:22,257 --> 00:31:24,927
{\an1}You’re a Black man,
and same thing to my sister.
674
00:31:25,026 --> 00:31:26,296
{\an1}You’re a Black woman.
675
00:31:26,394 --> 00:31:30,434
{\an1}You know,
people of color understand it.
676
00:31:30,532 --> 00:31:34,202
{\an1}They prepared us. You’re going
to deal with some things.
677
00:31:34,302 --> 00:31:37,302
{\an1}But you learn how
to deal with it.
678
00:31:37,405 --> 00:31:40,945
{\an1}Man:
Derek Jeter learned a valuable
lesson over the past 12 months.
679
00:31:41,042 --> 00:31:42,612
{\an1}It’s called reality.
680
00:31:42,710 --> 00:31:45,480
{\an1}When the Yankees drafted him,
it was a dream come true.
681
00:31:45,580 --> 00:31:49,610
{\an1}But then reality struck, and it
hit him like a ton of bricks.
682
00:31:49,717 --> 00:31:52,627
{\an1}I hated the last year.
Last year was terrible for me.
683
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,450
{\an1}Rookie league
was -- was terrible.
684
00:31:55,557 --> 00:31:57,797
{\an1}I was homesick.
I wasn’t playing good.
685
00:31:57,892 --> 00:32:00,332
{\an1}It was just as bad
as it could get.
686
00:32:00,428 --> 00:32:03,488
{\an1}[ Cheers and applause ]
687
00:32:06,100 --> 00:32:10,000
{\an1}The man New York Yankee
fans love to hate is back.
688
00:32:10,104 --> 00:32:11,974
{\an1}George Steinbrenner
returned to the Yankees today
689
00:32:12,073 --> 00:32:13,373
{\an1}after a two
and a half year suspension
690
00:32:13,475 --> 00:32:15,815
{\an1}for hanging around
with an admitted gambler.
691
00:32:15,910 --> 00:32:17,540
{\an1}Steinbrenner says
he’s a new man,
692
00:32:17,645 --> 00:32:20,045
{\an1}that he’ll be more patient
with his players now.
693
00:32:20,148 --> 00:32:23,618
{\an1}Meet the new boss, maybe not
the same as the old boss.
694
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,850
{\an1}Olney: When George returns,
he was still a tyrant
695
00:32:28,957 --> 00:32:31,597
{\an1}behind the scenes at times,
but I think the Gene Michael
696
00:32:31,693 --> 00:32:33,993
{\an1}learned how to manage George
697
00:32:34,095 --> 00:32:37,035
{\an1}and keep the Yankees
moving along in a way
698
00:32:37,131 --> 00:32:39,231
{\an1}that they weren’t able
to in the ’80s.
699
00:32:39,334 --> 00:32:41,104
{\an1}Showalter: I would have gone
through the wall for Stick.
700
00:32:41,202 --> 00:32:43,172
{\an1}The backbone he would show
about standing up
701
00:32:43,271 --> 00:32:45,941
{\an1}for what’s right
when he knew it was right,
702
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,570
{\an1}that vision to project
things down the road.
703
00:32:48,676 --> 00:32:50,846
{\an1}Staying the course with them,
that’s hard.
704
00:32:50,945 --> 00:32:52,215
{\an1}Derek and all these guys
weren’t good
705
00:32:52,313 --> 00:32:53,713
{\an1}right out the shoot.
706
00:32:53,815 --> 00:32:56,515
{\an1}Derek: For the first time
in my baseball career,
707
00:32:56,618 --> 00:33:01,358
{\an1}I was at shortstop saying,
"Please don’t hit it to me."
708
00:33:01,456 --> 00:33:03,056
{\an1}And then, sure enough,
they hit to you
709
00:33:03,157 --> 00:33:06,097
{\an1}and I made another error.
710
00:33:06,194 --> 00:33:07,964
{\an1}[Bleep] hard, man.
711
00:33:08,062 --> 00:33:09,962
{\an1}And I believed in myself,
712
00:33:10,064 --> 00:33:12,034
{\an1}but you still don’t know
till you’re in it.
713
00:33:12,133 --> 00:33:14,373
{\an1}I was completely overmatched.
714
00:33:14,469 --> 00:33:16,199
{\an1}You have to learn
to deal with failure
715
00:33:16,304 --> 00:33:19,274
{\an1}because it’s something
I never dealt with before.
716
00:33:19,374 --> 00:33:22,544
{\an1}Sherman:
For the first time in his life,
he’s struggling as an athlete.
717
00:33:22,644 --> 00:33:25,444
{\an1}He’s not fielding well.
He’s not hitting well.
718
00:33:25,547 --> 00:33:28,257
{\an1}Derek Jeter made 50 some errors
his first year in A ball.
719
00:33:28,349 --> 00:33:30,279
{\an1}56 errors I think it was.
720
00:33:30,385 --> 00:33:32,925
{\an1}56 errors, man?
721
00:33:33,021 --> 00:33:35,091
{\an1}Damn, that’s hard to do.
722
00:33:35,189 --> 00:33:36,719
{\an1}Intentionally,
that’s hard to do.
723
00:33:36,824 --> 00:33:38,764
{\an1}I remember calling
Brian Butterfield,
724
00:33:38,860 --> 00:33:40,560
{\an1}the infield guy there.
725
00:33:40,662 --> 00:33:45,132
{\an1}I go, "Brian, can this guy
play shortstop?"
726
00:33:45,233 --> 00:33:47,573
{\an1}And once in a while, you know,
you go home and you go,
727
00:33:47,669 --> 00:33:50,169
{\an1}"You know, this is my job
and my credibility.
728
00:33:50,271 --> 00:33:53,601
{\an1}Stick, are we right about this?
You know.
729
00:33:53,708 --> 00:33:56,978
{\an1}"Ah, yeah, I am.
I go, "Okay."
730
00:33:57,078 --> 00:33:59,138
{\an1}You know, we talk about
proving people wrong,
731
00:33:59,247 --> 00:34:00,457
{\an1}but this is the time
where you have to prove it
732
00:34:00,548 --> 00:34:02,248
{\an1}to yourself first.
733
00:34:02,350 --> 00:34:05,280
{\an1}And I had to prove to myself
that I can be consistent.
734
00:34:06,921 --> 00:34:09,590
{\an1}Forces you to grow up quick.
735
00:34:09,691 --> 00:34:11,760
{\an1}It forces you to look in
the mirror and say, hey, man,
736
00:34:11,858 --> 00:34:14,588
{\an1}am I cut out to do this?
Am I willing to put in the work?
737
00:34:14,695 --> 00:34:16,836
{\an1}Am I willing to put
in the sacrifice?
738
00:34:16,931 --> 00:34:19,501
{\an1}But it test you.
739
00:34:19,601 --> 00:34:21,001
{\an1}Gerald: It was hard for him
to make friends
740
00:34:21,102 --> 00:34:23,172
{\an1}based on where he was drafted.
741
00:34:23,271 --> 00:34:26,171
{\an1}People had a lot of jealousy,
and it was difficult for him
742
00:34:26,274 --> 00:34:31,213
{\an1}to trust people in that --
in that setting.
743
00:34:31,311 --> 00:34:33,882
{\an1}We decided to just go out,
taking a dinner
744
00:34:33,981 --> 00:34:35,782
{\an1}and just make sure he stays
745
00:34:35,883 --> 00:34:37,553
{\an1}with his work ethic
and all of those things,
746
00:34:37,652 --> 00:34:41,521
{\an1}because those were things that
he was always willing to do.
747
00:34:41,623 --> 00:34:43,222
{\an1}Being a number one pick,
you couldn’t ask
748
00:34:43,324 --> 00:34:45,064
{\an1}for anything better,
but that’s all over and done.
749
00:34:45,159 --> 00:34:47,829
{\an1}Now I’m here, and I’m in the
same position as everyone else.
750
00:34:47,929 --> 00:34:49,489
{\an1}I’ve got to put up numbers
and I got to show
751
00:34:49,597 --> 00:34:51,637
{\an1}I can play at higher levels
and move up.
752
00:34:51,733 --> 00:34:52,733
{\an1}They’re not just going to
move me because
753
00:34:52,834 --> 00:34:54,334
{\an1}I’m the number one pick.
754
00:34:54,434 --> 00:34:55,905
{\an1}If you’ve ever spent
any time with him,
755
00:34:56,003 --> 00:34:59,144
{\an1}you know, he’s mature
beyond his years.
756
00:34:59,240 --> 00:35:02,240
{\an1}And that came from his parents.
757
00:35:02,343 --> 00:35:05,243
{\an1}He was so young,
but yet so prepared.
758
00:35:05,346 --> 00:35:07,816
{\an1}It was just a matter
of gaining the experience
759
00:35:07,915 --> 00:35:09,915
{\an1}to be able to work on his craft.
760
00:35:10,018 --> 00:35:12,388
{\an1}Mattingly: I feel like I had a
unique seat to watch Derek
761
00:35:12,487 --> 00:35:15,327
{\an1}because I seen him come to camp
right out of high school
762
00:35:15,423 --> 00:35:17,393
{\an1}and then seeing him
the following year
763
00:35:17,492 --> 00:35:19,592
{\an1}and then the following year
after that, and it’s like,
764
00:35:19,694 --> 00:35:23,164
{\an1}ooh, this dude’s
picking it up right quick.
765
00:35:27,468 --> 00:35:29,268
{\an1}I remember being
in Fort Lauderdale.
766
00:35:29,370 --> 00:35:30,870
{\an1}There’s two backfields,
767
00:35:30,972 --> 00:35:34,012
{\an1}and I don’t know how we ended up
back there together,
768
00:35:34,108 --> 00:35:35,508
{\an1}and it just seemed like
it was me and him
769
00:35:35,610 --> 00:35:38,240
{\an1}and it was getting late.
770
00:35:38,346 --> 00:35:40,186
{\an1}You know, we were kind of
standing there, and the Yankee
771
00:35:40,281 --> 00:35:41,751
{\an1}way is like you’re
always kind of moving,
772
00:35:41,849 --> 00:35:43,609
{\an1}you don’t ever just walk.
773
00:35:43,718 --> 00:35:45,858
{\an1}And there’s no one there because
the team’s not playing there.
774
00:35:45,953 --> 00:35:47,193
{\an1}We get to the edge
of the outfield
775
00:35:47,288 --> 00:35:49,018
{\an1}and Donnie looks at me and says,
776
00:35:49,123 --> 00:35:52,093
{\an1}"Hey, we better run because
you never know who’s watching."
777
00:35:52,193 --> 00:35:55,093
{\an1}Then that could be fans.
That could be kids, right?
778
00:35:55,196 --> 00:35:57,306
{\an1}I’ve heard some DiMaggio stories
about, you know,
779
00:35:57,398 --> 00:35:59,098
{\an1}how you want
to play great every day
780
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,630
{\an1}because he never knows who’s
seeing it for the first time.
781
00:36:01,736 --> 00:36:05,576
{\an1}But also, there’s a box
with a blacked out window
782
00:36:05,673 --> 00:36:08,213
{\an1}up there that held
Mr. Steinbrenner.
783
00:36:08,309 --> 00:36:09,939
{\an1}You couldn’t see

You never know who’s watching.
785

{\an1}Kay: When George was away
for two years,
786
00:36:15,483 --> 00:36:18,083
{\an1}that allowed Gene Michael
to operate
787
00:36:18,186 --> 00:36:19,926
{\an1}without any kind of pressure.
788
00:36:20,021 --> 00:36:23,751
{\an1}But I don’t know if they take
the step to championship level
789
00:36:23,858 --> 00:36:28,338
{\an1}if George doesn’t return,
because I think George added
790
00:36:28,429 --> 00:36:30,629
{\an1}something in terms
of the urgency.
791

deep right field. It is gone.

798

{\an1}In 1994,

{\an1}there is a kid
in the Yankees system
803
00:36:57,358 --> 00:36:59,658
{\an1}who is blowing
through the minor leagues.
804
00:36:59,761 --> 00:37:02,031
{\an1}Man: Derek Jeter, just up from
double-A, Albany,
805
00:37:02,130 --> 00:37:04,200
{\an1}and ricochets
all the way to left field.

{\an1}Now Jeter is going
to go for two,

{\an1}Derek:
’94 it just all came together.
809
00:37:10,071 --> 00:37:12,201
{\an1}Once you have some level
of success,
810
00:37:12,306 --> 00:37:14,346
{\an1}confidence level
goes through the roof.
811
00:37:14,442 --> 00:37:17,442
{\an1}Jackson: I never saw Derek
that much in the minor leagues.
812
00:37:17,545 --> 00:37:19,485
{\an1}I would go to see Derek Jeter,
813
00:37:19,580 --> 00:37:21,180
{\an1}and when I got there,
they’d say,
814
00:37:21,282 --> 00:37:23,452
{\an1}Oh, he’s moved up
to the next team.
815
00:37:23,551 --> 00:37:26,481
{\an1}You know, it was like looking
at a thoroughbred horse
816
00:37:26,587 --> 00:37:30,357
{\an1}that had been brought up
in the blue grass of Kentucky.
817
00:37:30,458 --> 00:37:32,568
{\an1}He had the right stuff.
818
00:37:32,660 --> 00:37:34,230
{\an1}Man: Jeter drives
this ball left field.
819
00:37:34,328 --> 00:37:36,228
{\an1}This ball is way back,
820
00:37:36,330 --> 00:37:39,860
{\an1}and that’s why he’s running
through the Yankee farm system.
821
00:37:39,967 --> 00:37:42,177
{\an1}We think he’s a real fine
talent, there’s no question.

of the year.

-Look at the lead.

you can see it, man.

{\an1}We’re there, We’re playing.
827
00:37:54,348 --> 00:37:56,478
{\an1}And then the strike happens.

baseball season
829

{\an1}has been canceled,
and baseball’s darkest moments.

834
00:38:09,797 --> 00:38:12,707
{\an1}I can remember when I saw
Bud Selig say the season’s off.
835
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,530
{\an1}I could not believe that we were
actually going to do this.
836
00:38:15,636 --> 00:38:19,206
{\an1}Like a lot of things in life,
you anticipate something
837
00:38:19,307 --> 00:38:23,177
{\an1}and fear that it’s coming.
838
00:38:23,277 --> 00:38:25,417

Amount of sadness.

because you knew

It’ll be sad.

had a nice team
846

In ’95, my name was circulating
in a lot of trade rumors,
874
00:39:55,102 --> 00:39:59,342
{\an1}and I got a phone call
from my manager, Billy Evers,
875
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,170
{\an1}early in the morning,
and he says to me, "Are you up?"
876
00:40:02,276 --> 00:40:04,046
{\an1}I said, "No, I’m not up."
He said,
877
00:40:04,145 --> 00:40:06,685
{\an1}"Well, splash water on your face
and come to your room."
878

{\an1}I thought I was being traded.
879
00:40:09,216 --> 00:40:12,186
{\an1}He came and knocked on my room,
He said, "Congratulations.

{\an1}You’re going
to the big leagues."

This could be a very meaningful
day in New York Yankees history
885

{\an1}because the minor league player
of the year, Derek Jeter,
886

{\an1}will make his debut today
for the Yankees at shortstop.
887
00:40:26,968 --> 00:40:27,978
{\an1}Could be a memorable day.
888

00:40:29,470 --> 00:40:31,640
{\an1}Mickey Mantle broke in
at age 19.
890
00:40:31,739 --> 00:40:35,909
{\an1}It’s unbelievable.
You know, really, it is.
891
00:40:36,010 --> 00:40:38,780
{\an1}You sit up there
and you see your son out there
892

{\an1}and you feel proud,
you know, a little teary eyed.
893
00:40:42,316 --> 00:40:45,326
{\an1}Yankees are awfully high
on that 20-year-old.
894

as big as he was listed, 175.

great game, you know?

{\an1}But it didn’t make
any difference.
899
00:41:02,269 --> 00:41:04,839
{\an1}And spend some time
with him after,
900

{\an1}walking around like crazy
looking for a restaurant,
901
00:41:08,376 --> 00:41:11,246
{\an1}and looked like every
place we went it was closed.
902
00:41:11,345 --> 00:41:14,315
{\an1}And then we end up at McDonald’s
sitting down there eating,

939
00:42:34,261 --> 00:42:35,861
{\an1}There’s something about New York
that gets in your blood,
940
00:42:35,963 --> 00:42:37,433
{\an1}and those six years
with the Mets,
941
00:42:37,531 --> 00:42:38,861
{\an1}you know, I missed it,
I missed that stimulation,
942
00:42:38,966 --> 00:42:40,106
{\an1}the excitement.
943
00:42:40,201 --> 00:42:41,701
{\an1}Man: Now the 1-2.
944
00:42:41,802 --> 00:42:44,502
{\an1}Called over the inside corner.
945
00:42:44,605 --> 00:42:45,845
{\an1}Cone: Got off to a great start.
946
00:42:45,940 --> 00:42:47,770
{\an1}The team started
to turn it around.
947
00:42:47,875 --> 00:42:50,115
{\an1}There was also kind of
a rallying cry.
948
00:42:50,211 --> 00:42:51,611
{\an1}One of the best players
in the game
949
00:42:51,712 --> 00:42:53,382
{\an1}had never been in postseason,
Don Mattingly.
950
00:42:53,481 --> 00:42:55,581
{\an1}Announcer: Fly ball
deep to right field,
951
00:42:55,683 --> 00:42:58,283
{\an1}and Mattingly
can still do it, Kenny.
952
00:42:58,385 --> 00:43:00,525
{\an1}Mattingly: I knew it was
my last year, you know,
953
00:43:00,621 --> 00:43:02,591
{\an1}99 percent sure
this is it for me.
954
00:43:02,690 --> 00:43:05,620
{\an1}And I’m like, "Dude,
we got to win every day."
955
00:43:05,726 --> 00:43:08,536
{\an1}And I remember just talk
about [bleep] like every day.
956
00:43:08,629 --> 00:43:10,559
{\an1}-We’ve got to win every day,
every day.
957
00:43:10,664 --> 00:43:12,404
{\an1}Announcer: The fans love
it here at the yard,
958
00:43:12,500 --> 00:43:14,130
{\an1}and he is the captain
of the Yankees.
959
00:43:14,235 --> 00:43:16,935
{\an1}Cone: It was intense.
960
00:43:17,037 --> 00:43:19,047
{\an1}We had an incredible
run down the stretch,
961
00:43:19,140 --> 00:43:21,470
{\an1}and we knew that that was
the first year of the wild card,
962
00:43:21,575 --> 00:43:24,545
{\an1}so we had another avenue
to make the playoffs.
963
00:43:24,645 --> 00:43:27,045
{\an1}Derek: Yankees hadn’t been in
postseason a long time,
964
00:43:27,148 --> 00:43:29,058
{\an1}and every game was meaningful.
965
00:43:29,150 --> 00:43:31,120
{\an1}So we’re there,
but we didn’t play.
966
00:43:31,218 --> 00:43:33,878
{\an1}We were fans sitting
in the dugout to tell the truth.
967
00:43:33,988 --> 00:43:35,458
{\an1}Derek: Robbie caught a backhand
up the middle,
968
00:43:35,556 --> 00:43:36,896
{\an1}throw it
behind his back.
969
00:43:36,991 --> 00:43:38,921
{\an1}Announcer: Behind the back
for the force.
970
00:43:39,026 --> 00:43:41,436
{\an1}We jumping like, "Oh!"
And then we look
971
00:43:41,529 --> 00:43:42,889
{\an1}and everybody’s looking at us,
972
00:43:42,997 --> 00:43:44,967
{\an1}and we slowly
but surely sat back down,
973
00:43:45,065 --> 00:43:47,975
{\an1}didn’t say a word
the rest of the game.
974
00:43:48,068 --> 00:43:49,468
{\an1}I only had one at bat.
975
00:43:49,570 --> 00:43:52,170
{\an1}I hit double
in my only at bat in September.
976
00:43:52,273 --> 00:43:53,673
{\an1}Announcer: Jeter sends
toward the gap
977
00:43:53,774 --> 00:43:56,174
{\an1}deep to right field.
Going back, going back.
978
00:43:56,277 --> 00:43:59,617
{\an1}Derek Jeter making the
most of this chance.
979
00:43:59,713 --> 00:44:00,943
{\an1}We’re like, "Hey, no, wait.
Wait a minute.
980
00:44:01,048 --> 00:44:02,408
{\an1}Leave that kid
in the game a little.
981
00:44:02,516 --> 00:44:04,086
{\an1}I want to see a little bit
more of him now."
982
00:44:04,185 --> 00:44:06,755
{\an1}That was my first impression.
Ah, I don’t take him out.
983
00:44:06,854 --> 00:44:08,594
{\an1}Announcer: Randy hits it
to Fernandez.
984
00:44:08,689 --> 00:44:11,919
{\an1}He goes to second for the force,
and the New York Yankees
985
00:44:12,026 --> 00:44:18,106
{\an1}have won the 1995
first ever wildcard.
986
00:44:18,199 --> 00:44:20,959
{\an1}Announcer: And for the 35th time
in baseball history,
987
00:44:21,068 --> 00:44:24,598
{\an1}Yankee Stadium will play host
to a postseason game.
988
00:44:24,705 --> 00:44:27,775
{\an1}The 1995 division
series feature these...
989
00:44:27,875 --> 00:44:31,445
{\an1}Jeter was not
on the active roster in ’95,
990
00:44:31,545 --> 00:44:33,645
{\an1}but he was uniform.
991
00:44:33,747 --> 00:44:35,857
{\an1}Derek, For me as a player,
it helped to actually be there
992
00:44:35,950 --> 00:44:38,120
{\an1}on the bench
during the ’95 postseason,
993
00:44:38,219 --> 00:44:42,019
{\an1}even though I couldn’t play
just to see the atmosphere.
994
00:44:42,122 --> 00:44:45,562
{\an1}Announcer: They have full house
here at Yankee Stadium.
995
00:44:45,659 --> 00:44:47,059
{\an1}Showalter: I told him, I said,
listen, "If I hear you guys
996
00:44:47,161 --> 00:44:48,861
{\an1}are running the streets
here in New York,
997
00:44:48,963 --> 00:44:50,963
{\an1}you’re going to take your ass
back to instruction league."
998
00:44:51,065 --> 00:44:52,205
{\an1}Derek told me later
they didn’t leave
999
00:44:52,299 --> 00:44:54,129
{\an1}the hotel room
for two weeks.
1000
00:44:54,235 --> 00:44:57,635
{\an1}They loved it so much
they didn’t want to mess it up.
1001
00:44:57,738 --> 00:44:58,968
{\an1}A lot of people tell you
that’s a lie.
1002
00:44:59,073 --> 00:45:00,503
{\an1}Say they never heard
Yankee Stadium,
1003
00:45:00,608 --> 00:45:02,178
{\an1}the most emotion
in a stadium.
1004
00:45:02,276 --> 00:45:03,816
{\an1}Can’t top it.
1005
00:45:03,911 --> 00:45:08,481
{\an1}Mattingly: The energy in that
building was incredible.
1006
00:45:08,582 --> 00:45:10,882
{\an1}I can’t even explain
how good that felt,
1007
00:45:10,985 --> 00:45:13,655
{\an1}like, running onto the field.
1008
00:45:13,754 --> 00:45:17,494
{\an1}You know,
I actually felt fast running.
1009
00:45:17,591 --> 00:45:18,761
{\an1}And if anybody
just watch replay,
1010
00:45:18,859 --> 00:45:20,689
{\an1}I’m not fast.
1011
00:45:20,794 --> 00:45:23,994
{\an1}Knowing that this is it,
1012
00:45:24,098 --> 00:45:27,238
{\an1}and it was like
just lay it out there.
1013
00:45:27,334 --> 00:45:29,274
{\an1}Announcer: 3-1, Mattingly.
1014
00:45:29,370 --> 00:45:30,770
{\an1}Base hit, right field.
1015
00:45:30,871 --> 00:45:32,941
{\an1}Yankees take the lead.
1016
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,870
{\an1}Mattingly: I know Derek was -- I
don’t think he’s on that roster,
1017
00:45:35,976 --> 00:45:37,576
{\an1}but I know he was there.
1018
00:45:37,678 --> 00:45:39,248
{\an1}You know, if you don’t get
something out of that group
1019
00:45:39,346 --> 00:45:41,116
{\an1}in ’95 and with that fight,
1020
00:45:41,215 --> 00:45:44,085
{\an1}it’s the best kind of baseball
you could ever play.
1021
00:45:44,184 --> 00:45:46,854
{\an1}Announcer: 2-1,
Sierra deep right field!
1022
00:45:46,954 --> 00:45:49,894
{\an1}Wave that goodbye!
1023
00:45:51,125 --> 00:45:52,795
{\an1}Two strikes, two down,
two on.
1024
00:45:52,893 --> 00:45:55,863
{\an1}Struck him out.
Yankees win.
1025
00:45:55,963 --> 00:45:58,063
{\an1}Derek Jeter is 21 years old.
1026
00:45:58,165 --> 00:46:00,705
{\an1}He’s had a couple of cups
of coffee in the Major Leagues.
1027
00:46:00,801 --> 00:46:03,971
{\an1}As guys scoring stuff,
Jeter is up.
1028
00:46:04,071 --> 00:46:05,401
{\an1}Announcer:
This one by Mattingly.
1029
00:46:05,506 --> 00:46:07,546
{\an1}Oh, hang on to the roof!
1030
00:46:07,641 --> 00:46:11,881
{\an1}Goodbye!
Homerun, Don Mattingly.
1031
00:46:11,979 --> 00:46:13,709
{\an1}Sherman: Congratulating guys
as they come on the bench
1032
00:46:13,814 --> 00:46:15,154
{\an1}like he’s in the front
of the line.
1033
00:46:15,249 --> 00:46:18,149
{\an1}Announcer: 2-1.
Oh, yeah, tie game.
1034
00:46:18,252 --> 00:46:21,292
{\an1}Paul O’Neill. Goodbye
into the night of New York.
1035
00:46:21,388 --> 00:46:22,548
{\an1}If it’s any better than this,
1036
00:46:22,656 --> 00:46:23,826
{\an1}I don’t know
where you have to go to.
1037
00:46:23,924 --> 00:46:25,894
{\an1}2-1, Ruben Sierra.
1038
00:46:25,993 --> 00:46:28,463
{\an1}Swung on, left field.
Diaz, back, back.
1039
00:46:28,562 --> 00:46:31,302
{\an1}At the wall, Diaz looking.
Off the top off the wall.
1040
00:46:31,398 --> 00:46:33,128
{\an1}One run in,
Yankees can win in.
1041
00:46:33,233 --> 00:46:35,973
{\an1}Relay throw coming,
bottom of the plate
1042
00:46:36,070 --> 00:46:37,430
{\an1}And they got him!
1043
00:46:37,538 --> 00:46:39,848
{\an1}It’s tied up!
The game is tied!
1044
00:46:39,940 --> 00:46:42,240
{\an1}And the bottom half
of the 15th minute.
1045
00:46:42,343 --> 00:46:46,813
{\an1}Rain continues to fall here
in Yankee Stadium.
1046
00:46:46,914 --> 00:46:50,084
{\an1}Fly ball right field.
Maybe, it could be.
1047
00:46:50,184 --> 00:46:51,524
{\an1}Back of the wall!
1048
00:46:51,618 --> 00:46:55,148
{\an1}Goodbye, homerun!
The Yankees win!
1049
00:46:55,255 --> 00:46:59,465
{\an1}Jim Leyritz a two-run homer
in the 15th inning.
1050
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:04,090
{\an1}Yankees 7 -5.
1051
00:47:04,198 --> 00:47:08,438
{\an1}Gerald:
I thought we were going to win
the series when we were up 2-0.
1052
00:47:08,535 --> 00:47:12,105
{\an1}And it never occurred to me
that we would lose.
1053
00:47:12,206 --> 00:47:13,946
{\an1}Martinez: And I remember
Lou Piniella that night,
1054
00:47:14,041 --> 00:47:15,771
{\an1}walk through the plane
and just smiling.
1055
00:47:15,876 --> 00:47:18,386
{\an1}And, you know, he’s saying, hey,
guys, great games, great games.
1056
00:47:18,479 --> 00:47:20,939
{\an1}You know, stay with it.
We’re going to get him.
1057
00:47:21,048 --> 00:47:24,488
{\an1}Announcer:
And now it’s high noon
for the Yankees hired gun.
1058
00:47:24,585 --> 00:47:28,695
{\an1}Cone:
Game 5 was as intense a game
as I’ve ever been a part of.
1059
00:47:28,789 --> 00:47:30,689
{\an1}Announcer: No one wants
to go to Cleveland
1060
00:47:30,791 --> 00:47:32,391
{\an1}any more than
George Steinbrenner.
1061
00:47:32,493 --> 00:47:34,063
{\an1}Announcer: If they lose.
1062
00:47:34,161 --> 00:47:35,561
{\an1}It could be devastating.
There could be a lot of changes
1063
00:47:35,662 --> 00:47:36,892
{\an1}on that ballclub.
1064
00:47:36,997 --> 00:47:39,007
{\an1}Cone:
Stakes that were on the line,
1065
00:47:39,099 --> 00:47:41,529
{\an1}you feel the weight of the world
on your shoulders.
1066
00:47:41,635 --> 00:47:45,045
{\an1}Announcer: Captain Don Mattingly
with the bases loaded.
1067
00:47:45,139 --> 00:47:47,839
{\an1}Slaps one into left field down
into that corner.
1068
00:47:47,941 --> 00:47:49,371
{\an1}It’s fair, and the Yankees
will score.
1069
00:47:49,476 --> 00:47:51,316
{\an1}Yankees lead it by two.
1070
00:47:51,412 --> 00:47:57,152
{\an1}♪
1071
00:47:57,251 --> 00:48:00,521
{\an1}Deep to right field!
Oh, baby!
1072
00:48:00,621 --> 00:48:01,921
{\an1}Put it on the scoreboard.
1073
00:48:02,022 --> 00:48:03,822
{\an1}The kid has done it again.
1074
00:48:03,924 --> 00:48:07,664
{\an1}Yankees up by one,
and the bases are loaded.
1075
00:48:07,761 --> 00:48:09,991
{\an1}A tiring Cone trying
to hang on.
1076
00:48:11,832 --> 00:48:14,032
{\an1}And now we’re tied.
1077
00:48:14,134 --> 00:48:17,334
{\an1}Cone: I walked in the
tying run.
1078
00:48:17,438 --> 00:48:20,178
{\an1}Buck Showalter took me
out of that game.
1079
00:48:20,274 --> 00:48:23,244
{\an1}The first guy to greet me
was Derek Jeter, of all people.
1080
00:48:23,343 --> 00:48:25,213
{\an1}And I kind of blew him off,
I think.
1081
00:48:25,312 --> 00:48:26,842
{\an1}Yeah, yeah, whatever,
kid, you know.
1082
00:48:26,947 --> 00:48:28,457
{\an1}And I walked straight
to the clubhouse.
1083
00:48:28,549 --> 00:48:29,749
{\an1}I grabbed a white towel.
1084
00:48:29,850 --> 00:48:31,520
{\an1}Like a 12-year-old
little leaguer,
1085
00:48:31,618 --> 00:48:34,348
{\an1}I buried my face in the towel
and bawled my eyes out.
1086
00:48:34,455 --> 00:48:36,025
{\an1}At that point,
you’re at the mercy
1087
00:48:36,123 --> 00:48:37,553
{\an1}of the rest of the game.
1088
00:48:37,658 --> 00:48:39,428
{\an1}Announcer:
On to the 11th inning.
1089
00:48:39,526 --> 00:48:41,466
{\an1}Base hit.
Kelly coming around
1090
00:48:41,562 --> 00:48:44,392
{\an1}He’s going to score?
Yankees lead it now.
1091
00:48:44,498 --> 00:48:47,268
{\an1}The Yankees three outs away
from Cleveland.
1092
00:48:47,367 --> 00:48:48,907
{\an1}It is up to McDowell.
1093
00:48:49,002 --> 00:48:52,042
{\an1}Tying run on third base,
to Martinez.
1094
00:48:53,907 --> 00:48:56,047
{\an1}Line drive!
We are tied.
1095
00:48:56,143 --> 00:48:58,413
{\an1}Griffey is coming around.
1096
00:48:58,512 --> 00:48:59,912
{\an1}He’s gonna try to score.
1097
00:49:00,013 --> 00:49:04,413
{\an1}Mariners win it!
Mariners win it!
1098
00:49:04,518 --> 00:49:07,158
{\an1}Gerald: It’s just one of those
gut punches.
1099
00:49:07,254 --> 00:49:11,394
{\an1}The feeling is going to stay
with you forever,
1100
00:49:11,492 --> 00:49:14,062
{\an1}and it’s not a good one
when you lose.
1101
00:49:14,161 --> 00:49:17,331
{\an1}Randolph:
As I was coming off the field,
remember walking on the bench
1102
00:49:17,431 --> 00:49:19,661
{\an1}and Derek was like,
totally pissed off.
1103
00:49:19,766 --> 00:49:21,736
{\an1}Even though he didn’t play
in the game, it’s almost like,
1104
00:49:21,835 --> 00:49:23,405
{\an1}okay, alright, alright.
1105
00:49:23,504 --> 00:49:25,244
{\an1}This is what it feels like.
This is what it’s like.
1106
00:49:25,339 --> 00:49:28,809
{\an1}It’s almost like I don’t want
to have that feeling ever again.
1107
00:49:28,909 --> 00:49:30,969
{\an1}Derek: I mean,
I ain’t fun watching.
1108
00:49:31,078 --> 00:49:32,588
{\an1}I enjoy myself watching.
1109
00:49:32,679 --> 00:49:35,779
{\an1}It’s a great seat,
but I had
1110
00:49:35,883 --> 00:49:38,253
{\an1}the same view as everyone
in the front row.
1111
00:49:38,352 --> 00:49:40,952
{\an1}I want to play.
I want to compete.
1112
00:49:41,054 --> 00:49:43,954
{\an1}Cone: I’ve never been around
a more devastated clubhouse.
1113
00:49:44,057 --> 00:49:48,297
{\an1}People were crying, literally.
Grown men were crying.
1114
00:49:48,395 --> 00:49:50,595
{\an1}You couldn’t have
a worse plane ride.
1115
00:49:50,697 --> 00:49:52,767
{\an1}Jack McDowell And I was just
drowning our sorrows.
1116
00:49:52,866 --> 00:49:54,466
{\an1}I think we had
a bottle of whiskey.
1117
00:49:54,568 --> 00:49:57,108
{\an1}Don Mattingly came down nuzzled
in between both of us
1118
00:49:57,204 --> 00:49:59,104
{\an1}and put his arms
around us and said,
1119
00:49:59,206 --> 00:50:02,046
{\an1}"Thank you. Thank you for
at least getting me there.
1120
00:50:02,142 --> 00:50:04,672
{\an1}I finally can say
I got a taste of it.
1121
00:50:04,778 --> 00:50:08,278
{\an1}I know I’m probably not trying
to play again, so I mean,
1122
00:50:08,382 --> 00:50:09,712
{\an1}you think about that,
your, kind of,
1123
00:50:09,816 --> 00:50:11,056
{\an1}your career is over.
1124
00:50:11,151 --> 00:50:14,951
{\an1}At that point,
ends in a bad way.
1125
00:50:15,055 --> 00:50:17,355
{\an1}You grow from pain.
1126
00:50:17,457 --> 00:50:22,497
{\an1}For me, that was so pure
of a group that played hard
1127
00:50:22,596 --> 00:50:27,536
{\an1}and wanted to win so bad,
that if you didn’t see that,
1128
00:50:27,634 --> 00:50:29,474
{\an1}like you weren’t getting
anything from it.
1129
00:50:29,570 --> 00:50:31,170
{\an1}And I’m glad that some of
our young players
1130
00:50:31,271 --> 00:50:32,701
{\an1}were here
who didn’t get to play,
1131
00:50:32,806 --> 00:50:34,406
{\an1}but I brought them along
on the trip
1132
00:50:34,508 --> 00:50:37,748
{\an1}just so they can experience
the thrill of what it’s like.
1133
00:50:37,844 --> 00:50:41,384
{\an1}Derek: Seeing it prepared me
for the next year.
1134
00:50:41,481 --> 00:50:46,421
{\an1}That’s when my mind went.
Okay, how am I going to help us?
1135
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,220
{\an1}Man: What’s the fate
of Buck Showalter?
1136
00:50:48,322 --> 00:50:50,092
{\an1}What’s the fate of Gene Michael?
Can you address those?
1137
00:50:50,190 --> 00:50:51,920
{\an1}It’s difficult
to address that now.
1138
00:50:52,025 --> 00:50:54,665
{\an1}I mean, this -- this is
a very difficult time.
1139
00:50:54,761 --> 00:50:56,361
{\an1}Everybody is very down,
1140
00:50:56,463 --> 00:50:59,063
{\an1}and I’m not even going
to talk about that.
1141
00:50:59,166 --> 00:51:02,376
{\an1}We’ll start looking
at everything tomorrow.
1142
00:51:02,469 --> 00:51:05,339
{\an1}Showalter:
Mr. Steinbrenner wanted
to fire four of my coaches,
1143
00:51:05,439 --> 00:51:07,899
{\an1}and I couldn’t keep
my credibility
1144
00:51:08,008 --> 00:51:10,178
{\an1}and my respect in the clubhouse
with the players
1145
00:51:10,277 --> 00:51:13,087
{\an1}if I allowed him
to get rid of four coaches.
1146
00:51:14,781 --> 00:51:17,011
{\an1}You know, my dad had told me
that at some point in your life,
1147
00:51:17,117 --> 00:51:18,427
{\an1}you were going to have to,
1148
00:51:18,518 --> 00:51:20,048
{\an1}you know, plant your feet
and make a stand.
1149
00:51:20,153 --> 00:51:21,353
{\an1}And he said
you’ll know when it is.
1150
00:51:21,455 --> 00:51:23,095
{\an1}And that was one
of those moments.
1151
00:51:23,190 --> 00:51:26,890
{\an1}And it was painful.
God, I didn’t want to leave.
1152
00:51:26,994 --> 00:51:29,734
{\an1}You know,
he kind of forced my hand.
1153
00:51:29,830 --> 00:51:34,200
{\an1}You know, Stick moved on,
PR directors moved on.
1154
00:51:34,301 --> 00:51:36,071
{\an1}The Mattingly eras over,
Showalter,
1155
00:51:36,169 --> 00:51:40,199
{\an1}who had meant so much
to transitioning them, gone.
1156
00:51:40,307 --> 00:51:45,047
{\an1}You wondered what was
going to happen here.
1157
00:51:45,145 --> 00:51:46,715
{\an1}That off season,
if you would have told me,
1158
00:51:46,813 --> 00:51:49,213
{\an1}oh, by the way, this is
the beginning of a dynasty.
1159
00:51:49,316 --> 00:51:51,256
{\an1}I would have been like,
"No way."
