in the fact that it’s there.
70

{\an1}I knew there was a game
every night
71
00:03:19,375 --> 00:03:21,245
{\an1}when the sky would light up,
72
00:03:21,344 --> 00:03:24,284

for nothing

{\an1}to rob you for your bat.

00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:33,449

to get back home

{\an1}with that brand-new bat.

{\an1}I grew up within walking
distance of Yankee Stadium
84

{\an1}in a five-story walkup building.
85

there was somebody

{\an1}from a different ethnic group
that was living there.

winning World Series.
153

he is not going to be happy.

{\an1}when they came in the clubhouse,

on the Yankees,

that there was a breach.
160

of whether it was verbalized

You know you’re an outsider.
164

{\an1}Well, at least
I could say for me.
165
00:07:36,799 --> 00:07:39,599
{\an1}I just felt that way
the whole time I was there.
166
00:07:39,702 --> 00:07:42,872
{\an1}Let’s face it. With Derek as
the captain of the team,
167
00:07:42,972 --> 00:07:45,072
{\an1}that’s directly
an indictment of him.
168
00:07:45,174 --> 00:07:49,144
{\an1}Sometimes you lose
because there are better teams,
169
00:07:49,245 --> 00:07:53,085
{\an1}and it’s not necessarily
something to do with leadership.
170
00:07:53,182 --> 00:07:55,622
{\an1}But I’m fine with criticism.
171
00:07:55,718 --> 00:07:56,918
{\an1}And, yeah, I’m pretty sure
172
00:07:57,020 --> 00:07:58,550
{\an1}there’s things
throughout my career,
173
00:07:58,654 --> 00:08:01,724
{\an1}looking back, maybe I would
have handled differently.
174
00:08:01,824 --> 00:08:03,194
{\an1}I probably could have spent
175
00:08:03,292 --> 00:08:06,532
{\an1}more time with teammates
away from the field,
176
00:08:06,629 --> 00:08:09,399
{\an1}but I didn’t because
I hung out with people
177
00:08:09,499 --> 00:08:10,899
{\an1}who I was comfortable with.
178
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:15,640
{\an1}I hung out with people
I knew I could trust.
179
00:08:15,738 --> 00:08:18,468
{\an1}And I probably should have been
more trusting
180
00:08:18,574 --> 00:08:19,914
{\an1}to some of my teammates.
181
00:08:20,009 --> 00:08:22,579

a big catch out of the oven.

{\an1}Yeah. $161 million.

tremendously talented player,
186
00:08:33,089 --> 00:08:36,719
{\an1}but he’s supposed to be an
amazing person at the same time.
187
00:08:36,826 --> 00:08:38,966
{\an1}He was known for bonding
with his teammates,
188
00:08:39,062 --> 00:08:40,332
{\an1}so he kind of represented
189
00:08:40,429 --> 00:08:42,760
{\an1}everything we probably needed
at that moment.
190
00:08:42,865 --> 00:08:44,435
{\an1}For me, I was thinking,
"There ain’t no way
191
00:08:44,534 --> 00:08:46,734
{\an1}I’m signing with New York,
so don’t even worry about it."
192
00:08:46,836 --> 00:08:48,836
{\an1}Like, how am I gonna
change your culture?
193
00:08:48,938 --> 00:08:50,868
{\an1}You know what I’m saying?
But Cashman was like,
194
00:08:50,973 --> 00:08:53,013
{\an1}"I’ve watched what you’ve done
with your teammates
195
00:08:53,109 --> 00:08:55,509
{\an1}and, you know, going out to eat
and doing these different things
196
00:08:55,611 --> 00:08:57,281
{\an1}and organizing
all this different stuff.
197
00:08:57,380 --> 00:08:59,110
{\an1}I feel like
that can work for us."
198
00:08:59,215 --> 00:09:02,255

It all kind of fell into place.

00:13:36,692 --> 00:13:38,392
{\an1}Sabathia: I come into
the postseason of ’09.
319
00:13:38,494 --> 00:13:40,364
{\an1}I’m like, "I got to go out.
I got to throw the shutout.
320
00:13:40,463 --> 00:13:42,133
{\an1}Got to do whatever."
And I give up those two runs.
321
00:13:42,231 --> 00:13:44,661
{\an1}Announcer: And that one
gets away from Posada.
322

and slides in under the tag.

{\an1}I come back
and sit on the bench.
325
00:13:53,409 --> 00:13:55,239

He was like, "You alright?"
326
00:13:55,344 --> 00:13:57,484
{\an1}I must have looked weird because
I must have not been alright

{\an1}for the room to ask me
if I was alright.
328
00:13:59,515 --> 00:14:01,785

"Yeah, I’m fine, I’m fine.
I’ll get into the game."

{\an1}for Derek Jeter.
335
00:14:15,231 --> 00:14:17,431
{\an1}And it ties the game
in the third.
336
00:14:17,533 --> 00:14:18,903
{\an1}Sabathia:
When he hit that home run,
337
00:14:19,001 --> 00:14:21,071
{\an1}like, a knot in my stomach
just released.
338
00:14:21,170 --> 00:14:23,640

have been there before.
339

You know what I’m saying?
340

{\an1}Like, "They’re gonna
lead you there."
341
00:14:28,444 --> 00:14:29,884
{\an1}Rodriguez:
Mariano had four championships,
342
00:14:29,979 --> 00:14:32,439
{\an1}and Derek and Pettitte
and Posada.
343

in the tooth
355

476
00:20:02,311 --> 00:20:04,441
{\an1}The Yankees are back on top!
477
00:20:04,546 --> 00:20:07,716
{\an1}World champions
for the 27th time.
478
00:20:07,816 --> 00:20:14,756
{\an1}♪
479
00:20:14,857 --> 00:20:16,267
{\an1}Jeter: I would say 2009
480
00:20:16,358 --> 00:20:19,258
{\an1}was more of a relief
because it had been --
481
00:20:19,361 --> 00:20:21,491
{\an1}I sound funny saying it --
so long.
482
00:20:21,597 --> 00:20:25,167
{\an1}Right? But, you know.
483
00:20:25,267 --> 00:20:27,507
{\an1}It’s been too long, hasn’t it?
484
00:20:29,404 --> 00:20:32,974
{\an1}It feels good to be back.
Thank you.
485
00:20:33,075 --> 00:20:34,475
{\an1}It felt really, really good.
486
00:20:34,576 --> 00:20:36,846
{\an1}But we won five championships.
487
00:20:36,945 --> 00:20:39,115
{\an1}But I think about the years
we should have won.
488
00:20:39,214 --> 00:20:41,554
{\an1}I still think about those years
we should have won.
489
00:20:41,650 --> 00:20:45,850
{\an1}Arizona, we should have won.
The Marlins, we should have won.
490
00:20:45,954 --> 00:20:47,994
{\an1}And Boston, we should have won.
491
00:20:48,090 --> 00:20:51,120
{\an1}I felt -- See, but then
I sound like a loser, you know?
492
00:20:51,226 --> 00:20:55,036
{\an1}I wish I didn’t think that way.
Like, really, I wish I didn’t.
493
00:20:55,130 --> 00:20:57,330
{\an1}I wish I would have had
a better appreciation
494
00:20:57,432 --> 00:20:59,972
{\an1}for things that happened
in my career
495
00:21:00,068 --> 00:21:03,468
{\an1}and moments in my career
while I was going through it.
496
00:21:03,572 --> 00:21:06,312
{\an1}But it was, "What’s next?"
497
00:21:06,408 --> 00:21:07,368
{\an1}♪
498
00:21:07,476 --> 00:21:09,376
{\an1}honor
499
00:21:09,478 --> 00:21:12,818
{\an1}this sport’s brightest stars,
baseball lost a true legend.
500
00:21:12,915 --> 00:21:17,155
{\an1}George Steinbrenner passed away
earlier today at the age of 80.
501
00:21:17,252 --> 00:21:20,392
{\an1}Jeter: The Boss was outspoken.
He was front and center.
502
00:21:20,489 --> 00:21:23,219
{\an1}He was noisy.
In a good way, you know?
503
00:21:23,325 --> 00:21:26,435
{\an1}He kept you on your toes.
He would challenge you.
504
00:21:26,528 --> 00:21:29,728
{\an1}He would call you out.
He would embarrass you.
505
00:21:29,832 --> 00:21:32,102
{\an1}And if you backed down from him,
506
00:21:32,201 --> 00:21:34,231
{\an1}I don’t think
he would respect you.
507
00:21:34,336 --> 00:21:35,606
{\an1}He’s the reason why I was able
508
00:21:35,704 --> 00:21:38,244
{\an1}to play 20 years
for the Yankees.
509
00:21:38,340 --> 00:21:40,640
{\an1}He was definitely tough.
Expectations were high.
510
00:21:40,742 --> 00:21:44,082
{\an1}But in the end, I think
it made me a better person.
511
00:21:44,179 --> 00:21:46,809
{\an1}Jeter: You couldn’t think of
a better person to take over
512
00:21:46,915 --> 00:21:48,385
{\an1}after the Boss than Hal.
513
00:21:48,483 --> 00:21:49,613
{\an1}Hal’s a little bit
more reserved.
514
00:21:49,718 --> 00:21:51,148
{\an1}But they have
the same mentality.
515
00:21:51,253 --> 00:21:54,653
{\an1}You know, Hal’s expectation
levels are the same.
516
00:21:54,756 --> 00:21:57,626
{\an1}But at the time, we didn’t know
how things were going to change,
517
00:21:57,726 --> 00:21:58,996
{\an1}because early on in my career,
518
00:21:59,094 --> 00:22:02,234
{\an1}we knew who was
calling all the shots.
519
00:22:02,331 --> 00:22:04,231
{\an1}Cashman: George Steinbrenner
was like a second father to me.
520
00:22:04,333 --> 00:22:07,003
{\an1}I was nobody,
and if I’m somebody today,
521
00:22:07,102 --> 00:22:08,932
{\an1}it’s because he,
for whatever reason --
522
00:22:09,037 --> 00:22:12,307
{\an1}he handpicked me, gave me
an opportunity, moved me along.
523
00:22:12,407 --> 00:22:15,617
{\an1}And for that,
I’ll always be grateful.
524
00:22:15,711 --> 00:22:18,081
{\an1}Brian Cashman
is the one constant
525
00:22:18,180 --> 00:22:20,510
{\an1}who’s still with the Yankees
since 1998.
526
00:22:20,616 --> 00:22:23,186
{\an1}Announcer: Swing and a miss.
He got him on a breaking ball.
527
00:22:23,285 --> 00:22:25,155
{\an1}Jeter down on strikes.
528
00:22:25,254 --> 00:22:28,194
{\an1}2010. Had a bad year.
529
00:22:28,290 --> 00:22:31,020
{\an1}Think I hit about .270.
530
00:22:31,126 --> 00:22:33,266
{\an1}Everybody knew
that his contract was up,
531
00:22:33,362 --> 00:22:36,192
{\an1}and he’s now 36.
532
00:22:36,298 --> 00:22:40,708
{\an1}Announcer: The Texas Rangers
are American League champions!
533
00:22:40,802 --> 00:22:42,372
{\an1}Derek has been and will be
534
00:22:42,471 --> 00:22:43,841
{\an1}an important part
of this organization,
535
00:22:43,939 --> 00:22:47,639
{\an1}so how it gets defined
in this new negotiation
536
00:22:47,743 --> 00:22:49,113
{\an1}is yet to be determined.
537
00:22:49,211 --> 00:22:51,881
{\an1}When you’re dealing with money
and perceived worth,
538
00:22:51,980 --> 00:22:54,380
{\an1}it’s never an easy dance.
539
00:22:54,483 --> 00:22:55,883
{\an1}He’s one of the all-time
great players,
540
00:22:55,984 --> 00:22:58,524
{\an1}but you’re still having to
put a number on somebody
541
00:22:58,620 --> 00:23:00,620
{\an1}based on their
more recent performance.
542
00:23:00,722 --> 00:23:04,322
{\an1}Close: Derek is so much more
to the New York Yankees
543
00:23:04,426 --> 00:23:07,666
{\an1}than just exactly what he did
in that moment, in that season.
544
00:23:07,763 --> 00:23:09,533
{\an1}Their look
at what that value was
545
00:23:09,631 --> 00:23:12,801
{\an1}and our understanding
were just two different things.
546
00:23:12,901 --> 00:23:15,631
{\an1}Steinbrenner: I absolutely
try to keep any emotions,
547
00:23:15,737 --> 00:23:18,377
{\an1}any subjectivity
out of those type of things,
548
00:23:18,473 --> 00:23:20,413
{\an1}because that can affect
your decision-making.
549
00:23:20,509 --> 00:23:21,669
{\an1}Me and my agent, Casey,
550
00:23:21,777 --> 00:23:24,147
{\an1}went to
Hal Steinbrenner’s house,
551
00:23:24,246 --> 00:23:27,886
{\an1}and it was Hal and Cashman
and Randy Levine.
552
00:23:27,983 --> 00:23:30,523
{\an1}And I said,
"Look, Hal, I want to tell you,
553
00:23:30,619 --> 00:23:32,349
{\an1}you know,
this is where I want to be.
554
00:23:32,454 --> 00:23:33,594
{\an1}I don’t want to go anywhere.
555
00:23:33,689 --> 00:23:35,689
{\an1}I’ve told Casey,
’If any other team calls,
556
00:23:35,791 --> 00:23:37,091
{\an1}tell them I’m not interested,’
557
00:23:37,192 --> 00:23:38,892
{\an1}because this is where
I want to be."
558
00:23:38,994 --> 00:23:43,704
{\an1}And I said, "The only thing that
I ask is that it stays private."
559
00:23:43,799 --> 00:23:45,699
{\an1}Reporter: The Yankees are
entrenched in their reported
560
00:23:45,801 --> 00:23:48,701
{\an1}three-year, $45-million offer
to Derek Jeter.
561
00:23:48,804 --> 00:23:50,904
{\an1}Reporter #2: The negotiations
with the Yankees
562
00:23:51,006 --> 00:23:52,876
{\an1}are playing out quite publicly.
563
00:23:52,975 --> 00:23:55,275
{\an1}It’s kind of
an odd thing to witness.
564
00:23:55,377 --> 00:23:57,887
{\an1}What initially upset me
565
00:23:57,980 --> 00:23:59,780
{\an1}had nothing to do
with what contract
566
00:23:59,881 --> 00:24:02,711
{\an1}they thought I was worth.
567
00:24:02,818 --> 00:24:05,058
{\an1}It was the fact that I said
I want to keep it private,
568
00:24:05,153 --> 00:24:07,953
{\an1}and a couple of days later,
it became public.
569
00:24:08,056 --> 00:24:09,496
{\an1}Steinbrenner:
I felt the same way he did.
570
00:24:09,591 --> 00:24:12,591
{\an1}These are
behind-closed-door things
571
00:24:12,694 --> 00:24:15,164
{\an1}that shouldn’t have got
to the place it got, no doubt.
572
00:24:15,263 --> 00:24:18,063
{\an1}Cashman: How are we now
in a public arena on this?
573
00:24:18,166 --> 00:24:20,136
{\an1}And so, like anything else,
574
00:24:20,235 --> 00:24:23,005
{\an1}you try to navigate things
the best way possible.
575
00:24:23,105 --> 00:24:25,005
{\an1}And I wish we didn’t
have to deal with that stuff,
576
00:24:25,107 --> 00:24:28,077
{\an1}but it comes with the --
with the program sometimes.
577
00:24:28,176 --> 00:24:29,616
{\an1}It’s certainly not something
578
00:24:29,711 --> 00:24:33,081
{\an1}that the New York Yankees
wanted, not something I wanted.
579
00:24:33,181 --> 00:24:35,211
{\an1}Matthews:
Cashman said if Derek wants
580
00:24:35,317 --> 00:24:39,657
{\an1}to be paid as a great Yankee,
he should go test the market.
581
00:24:39,755 --> 00:24:42,255
{\an1}"Go see if anybody else
will give you that
and then come back to me."
582
00:24:42,357 --> 00:24:43,597
{\an1}I was already pissed off
at the fact
583
00:24:43,692 --> 00:24:45,092
{\an1}that this had become public.
584
00:24:45,193 --> 00:24:48,433
{\an1}Now Cash is challenging me
to find another offer.
585
00:24:48,530 --> 00:24:51,100
{\an1}Cashman: The offer we conveyed
was something that we felt
586
00:24:51,199 --> 00:24:53,029
{\an1}was above and beyond
587
00:24:53,135 --> 00:24:56,575
{\an1}to try to check
all the boxes of respect.
588
00:24:56,671 --> 00:24:58,201
{\an1}And so my response was,
589
00:24:58,306 --> 00:25:00,416
{\an1}"If you think you can beat it,
you should shop it."
590
00:25:00,509 --> 00:25:02,439
{\an1}Whether there was going to be
a better offer out there
591
00:25:02,544 --> 00:25:04,084
{\an1}or not, you know,
we would find out.
592
00:25:04,179 --> 00:25:05,979
{\an1}That’s the art
of the negotiation, right?
593
00:25:06,081 --> 00:25:08,911
{\an1}Brian Cashman says,
"Well, he should drink
the reality potion,"
594
00:25:09,017 --> 00:25:11,457
{\an1}which, you know,
was just an amazing quote.
595
00:25:11,553 --> 00:25:13,293
{\an1}And I know for a fact
596
00:25:13,388 --> 00:25:16,918
{\an1}that it stung Derek
a little bit.
597
00:25:17,025 --> 00:25:20,065
{\an1}Murti: This was supposed to be
the easiest negotiation ever,
598
00:25:20,162 --> 00:25:22,492
{\an1}but somehow
you’ve gotten past Thanksgiving
599
00:25:22,597 --> 00:25:24,837
{\an1}and Derek Jeter’s
still not a Yankee.
600
00:25:24,933 --> 00:25:27,633
{\an1}Seemed a little unbelievable.
601
00:25:27,736 --> 00:25:30,006
{\an1}Cashman:
We have a powwow in Tampa.
602
00:25:30,105 --> 00:25:34,045
{\an1}You know, there’s now blood
on both sides bleeding out.
603
00:25:34,142 --> 00:25:35,512
{\an1}Jeter:
The second meeting that I had,
604
00:25:35,610 --> 00:25:37,780
{\an1}Cash is going
back and forth about,
605
00:25:37,879 --> 00:25:40,549
{\an1}I don’t deserve this
or I don’t deserve that.
606
00:25:40,649 --> 00:25:42,879
{\an1}And I said to him, I said,
607
00:25:42,984 --> 00:25:44,954
{\an1}"Well, tell me
who you’d rather have."
608
00:25:45,053 --> 00:25:46,383
{\an1}I had no interest
609
00:25:46,488 --> 00:25:48,928
{\an1}in having the conversation
that he asked to have,
610
00:25:49,024 --> 00:25:50,994
{\an1}so I usually answer
the question,
611
00:25:51,093 --> 00:25:52,493
{\an1}"Do you really want me
to answer that?"
612
00:25:52,594 --> 00:25:54,294
{\an1}But he asked the question,
and I, you know --
613
00:25:54,396 --> 00:25:56,296
{\an1}I was charged with answering it
because he wanted an answer,
614
00:25:56,398 --> 00:25:57,768
{\an1}and so I did.
615
00:25:57,866 --> 00:26:00,106
{\an1}I rattled off Troy Tulowitzki
and Hanley Ramirez,
616
00:26:00,202 --> 00:26:02,672
{\an1}the top two best shortstops
in baseball at the time,
617
00:26:02,771 --> 00:26:04,241
{\an1}because at this stage,
Derek wasn’t
618
00:26:04,339 --> 00:26:07,669
{\an1}in the top echelon of shortstops
in the game anymore.
619
00:26:07,776 --> 00:26:09,346
{\an1}Jeter:
That’s not the name I heard.
620
00:26:09,444 --> 00:26:12,044
{\an1}But he said Hanley Ramirez.
621
00:26:12,147 --> 00:26:14,187
{\an1}I didn’t think Cash
would answer the question,
622
00:26:14,282 --> 00:26:15,512
{\an1}but he answered the question.
623
00:26:15,617 --> 00:26:18,827
{\an1}And when you have someone
that’s your boss
624
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,190
{\an1}tell you that they’d
rather have somebody,
625
00:26:21,289 --> 00:26:23,819
{\an1}you never forget the name
that comes out of their mouth.
626
00:26:23,925 --> 00:26:27,265
{\an1}And I said, "I’m not gonna sit
here and listen to this shit."
627
00:26:27,362 --> 00:26:30,032
{\an1}Close: After that meeting,
we walked away saying,
628
00:26:30,132 --> 00:26:31,362
{\an1}"I don’t know where this goes."
629
00:26:31,466 --> 00:26:32,866
{\an1}There was that moment in time
630
00:26:32,968 --> 00:26:35,708
{\an1}if cooler heads don’t prevail,
he might be gone.
631
00:26:35,804 --> 00:26:37,044
{\an1}Steinbrenner:
That was a concern.
632
00:26:37,139 --> 00:26:38,499
{\an1}Obviously, in his case,
he’s beloved,
633
00:26:38,607 --> 00:26:40,347
{\an1}and our fans expected us
to get a deal done.
634
00:26:40,442 --> 00:26:43,242
{\an1}I think we allowed a little time
to go off from there.
635
00:26:43,345 --> 00:26:45,545
{\an1}We kind of got back on track
with the negotiation.
636
00:26:45,647 --> 00:26:47,887
{\an1}You just kind of sometimes have
to take the air out of the room
637
00:26:47,983 --> 00:26:49,583
{\an1}and not have it be
so contentious.
638
00:26:49,684 --> 00:26:53,124
{\an1}There seemed to be no other
genuine option for either side.
639
00:26:53,221 --> 00:26:55,351
{\an1}Derek Jeter and the Yankees
needed each other.
640
00:26:55,457 --> 00:26:58,067
{\an1}And now sources say they’ve
agreed on a new contract.
641
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,430
{\an1}Jeter reportedly gets
three years, $51 million.
642
00:27:01,530 --> 00:27:03,530
{\an1}Murti: The numbers
were reasonable for a player
643
00:27:03,632 --> 00:27:06,202
{\an1}who you weren’t sure
was going to be the same player
644
00:27:06,301 --> 00:27:09,501
{\an1}by the time you got to the end
of those three years.
645
00:27:09,604 --> 00:27:11,074
{\an1}Yeah, I never wanted
to be a free agent.
646
00:27:11,173 --> 00:27:13,273
{\an1}You know, it’s the situation
that I was in.
647
00:27:13,375 --> 00:27:15,075
{\an1}And -- But, yeah,
I’d be lying to you
648
00:27:15,177 --> 00:27:18,347
{\an1}if I said I wasn’t angry
at how some of this went.
649
00:27:18,446 --> 00:27:20,586
{\an1}Close: I was happy
that he expressed his feelings.
650
00:27:20,682 --> 00:27:22,052
{\an1}I think he had compartmentalized
651
00:27:22,150 --> 00:27:23,680
{\an1}a lot of those feelings
through the years
652
00:27:23,785 --> 00:27:26,155
{\an1}because he felt like that
wasn’t the right thing to do
653
00:27:26,254 --> 00:27:27,454
{\an1}as the captain of the Yankees.
654
00:27:27,556 --> 00:27:29,126
{\an1}It was not
an enjoyable experience
655
00:27:29,224 --> 00:27:31,264

You know, throughout the years,
656
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:32,989
{\an1}I’ve prided myself
on keeping things
657
00:27:33,094 --> 00:27:34,964
{\an1}out of the papers
and out of the media.
658
00:27:35,063 --> 00:27:38,733
{\an1}And this turned into a big
public thing, so that was...
659
00:27:38,833 --> 00:27:41,733
{\an1}It changed my feelings
on the front office.
660
00:27:41,836 --> 00:27:45,046
{\an1}I knew now you’re able
to just throw me out, right?
661
00:27:45,140 --> 00:27:47,170
{\an1}You’re able to not treat me
with the respect
662
00:27:47,275 --> 00:27:49,745
{\an1}that I’ve shown you
throughout my entire career.
663
00:27:49,844 --> 00:27:51,014
{\an1}It’s not a two-way street.
664
00:27:51,112 --> 00:27:53,652
{\an1}It was a reminder
that it’s a business.
665
00:27:53,748 --> 00:27:57,618
{\an1}Now, I didn’t want to have
many conversations with Cash.
666
00:27:57,719 --> 00:27:58,779
{\an1}I didn’t.
667
00:27:58,887 --> 00:28:00,957
{\an1}Didn’t really want
to speak to him
668
00:28:01,056 --> 00:28:02,796
{\an1}because I had lost that trust.
669
00:28:02,891 --> 00:28:04,791
{\an1}Never said anything bad
about him,
670
00:28:04,893 --> 00:28:06,623
{\an1}but I didn’t want to see him.
671
00:28:06,728 --> 00:28:09,928
{\an1}And my whole mind-set
from that point forward,
672
00:28:10,031 --> 00:28:12,931

"I’m gonna prove you wrong."

on myself to do it at home.
686

{\an1}’cause I wanted
to share the moment

{\an1}with the fans at Yankee Stadium,
688
00:28:46,301 --> 00:28:49,171

of what I was trying to do.
689

{\an1}I had really never seen
Derek struggle, ever.

I felt he was pressing.

get it at home.

to dinner

{\an1}with one of my best friends,
Maxwell.
796
00:33:11,966 --> 00:33:14,776
{\an1}There was an event
at the restaurant,
797
00:33:14,869 --> 00:33:18,199
{\an1}and I just so happened
to be sitting next to her mom.

talking to my mom.

804

{\an1}I thought she was with someone
at the time.
805
00:33:33,655 --> 00:33:36,225
{\an1}I remember going to the bathroom
with my mom
806
00:33:36,324 --> 00:33:38,394

{\an1}game one of the American League
Championship Series.
957

’cause I was getting information

coming down my face.

This is okay.

995
00:40:54,595 --> 00:40:58,365

I cared about him.

{\an1}in all the years
that I’ve been in a clubhouse.

{\an1}had put thousands of pounds
on our shoulders
1012

about life after baseball?

{\an1}excuse my language --
fucking disaster.

I’m gonna be back."

because that was his plan.
1035

{\an1}But at home, man,
he was miserable.
1036
00:42:41,102 --> 00:42:42,602

a scooter.

a restaurant, eating breakfast.
1054
00:43:26,881 --> 00:43:29,751

the article --

{\an1}"Derek Eater."
1056
00:43:31,185 --> 00:43:32,655
{\an1}They made my shirt bigger
and my shorts bigger
1057

I was, like, 300 pounds.

I had everything. Bacon.

{\an1}that happens to the player,
as far as their production,
1102
00:45:20,494 --> 00:45:23,434
{\an1}it’s not that they’re making
mistakes because they’re human.
1103
00:45:23,530 --> 00:45:25,800
{\an1}They’re making mistakes
because they’re old.
1104
00:45:25,899 --> 00:45:28,269
{\an1}Jeter: Back then,
I thought that as players
1105
00:45:28,369 --> 00:45:31,969
{\an1}they didn’t appreciate what
we’ve done for the organization.
1106
00:45:32,072 --> 00:45:34,912
{\an1}A lot of us
were somewhat forced out.
1107
00:45:35,009 --> 00:45:37,369
{\an1}That’s how we felt
as players back then.
1108
00:45:37,478 --> 00:45:38,948
{\an1}♪
1109
00:45:39,046 --> 00:45:41,786
{\an1}Cashman: There is a separation
between church and state.
1110
00:45:41,882 --> 00:45:43,812
{\an1}And that doesn’t mean you
can’t have good relationships,
1111
00:45:43,917 --> 00:45:47,287
{\an1}doesn’t mean you can’t care
for them and their families.
1112
00:45:47,388 --> 00:45:48,628
{\an1}But at the same time,
1113
00:45:48,722 --> 00:45:50,452
{\an1}there’s gonna be some conflicts
that occur,
1114
00:45:50,557 --> 00:45:53,027
{\an1}and you can’t have
that emotional arena
1115
00:45:53,127 --> 00:45:54,367
{\an1}blurred because of it.
1116
00:45:54,461 --> 00:45:56,031
{\an1}2013 is a wash.
1117
00:45:56,130 --> 00:45:57,960
{\an1}I mean, I played for two weeks.
1118
00:45:58,065 --> 00:46:00,205
{\an1}So you can’t even count 2013,
1119
00:46:00,301 --> 00:46:05,141
{\an1}In my mind, it’s 2012
to now it’s going to 2014.
1120
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,369
{\an1}So, in my mind, I’m getting back
to where I was in 2012,
1121
00:46:08,475 --> 00:46:10,015
{\an1}you know, 200-some hits.
1122
00:46:10,110 --> 00:46:13,340
{\an1}I’m ready to go. Um...
1123
00:46:13,447 --> 00:46:18,227
{\an1}And then it just took
so much energy in rehab
1124
00:46:18,319 --> 00:46:20,019
{\an1}that it started to feel like --
1125
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:23,290
{\an1}for the first time,
it felt like a job, you know?
1126
00:46:23,390 --> 00:46:25,160
{\an1}It really felt like a job.
1127
00:46:25,259 --> 00:46:28,659
{\an1}And I always said
if it felt like a job,
1128
00:46:28,762 --> 00:46:30,962
{\an1}it’d be time for me
to hang them up.
1129
00:46:31,065 --> 00:46:32,465
{\an1}We had a real conversation
1130
00:46:32,566 --> 00:46:36,236
{\an1}about what life was gonna
look like after his career.
1131
00:46:36,337 --> 00:46:38,477
{\an1}And he talked to me about,
1132
00:46:38,572 --> 00:46:41,712
{\an1}"I’m ready to get off
this crazy schedule
1133
00:46:41,809 --> 00:46:43,739
{\an1}and timeline and things."
1134
00:46:43,844 --> 00:46:47,314
{\an1}So I think he was ready.
1135
00:46:47,414 --> 00:46:48,714
{\an1}Jeter:
I told Suzyn Waldman --
1136
00:46:48,816 --> 00:46:51,186
{\an1}I think it was maybe
when Bernie retired.
1137
00:46:51,285 --> 00:46:52,955
{\an1}I said,
"Suzyn, I’ll tell you first.
1138
00:46:53,053 --> 00:46:55,793
{\an1}When I’m gonna retire, you’ll
be the first one I let know."
1139
00:46:55,889 --> 00:46:58,919
{\an1}So I called her,
left her a message.
1140
00:46:59,026 --> 00:47:00,196
{\an1}She didn’t pick up.
1141
00:47:00,294 --> 00:47:01,634
{\an1}I was out with the dogs.
1142
00:47:01,729 --> 00:47:04,659
{\an1}I was just outside playing
with my German Shepherds.
1143
00:47:04,765 --> 00:47:07,805
{\an1}"Suzyn, it’s Derek Jeter.
1144
00:47:07,901 --> 00:47:11,371
{\an1}I told you that I’d tell you
first when I’m retiring.
1145
00:47:11,472 --> 00:47:15,042
{\an1}Well, it’s happening.
I didn’t tell Hal yet."
1146
00:47:15,142 --> 00:47:17,242
{\an1}He called me, but --
but, you know,
1147
00:47:17,344 --> 00:47:18,884
{\an1}back in -- back in those days,
1148
00:47:18,979 --> 00:47:21,249
{\an1}there was a lot of, you know,
numbers I didn’t recognize.
1149
00:47:21,348 --> 00:47:23,208
{\an1}So I didn’t recognize
the number.
1150
00:47:23,317 --> 00:47:25,087
{\an1}And then I got --
I got caught up in something
1151
00:47:25,185 --> 00:47:27,855
{\an1}and completely forgot
to check the voicemail.
1152
00:47:27,955 --> 00:47:29,395
{\an1}Didn’t get back to him
till the next day.
1153
00:47:29,490 --> 00:47:32,220
{\an1}Why didn’t I save that message?
How dumb am I?
1154
00:47:32,326 --> 00:47:33,626
{\an1}He’s under "Jeter" now
on my phone.
1155
00:47:33,727 --> 00:47:34,797
{\an1}There’s -- There’s --
1156
00:47:34,895 --> 00:47:36,395
{\an1}There’ll be no more --
no more of that.
1157
00:47:36,497 --> 00:47:40,067
{\an1}Man: Derek Jeter announcing
on his Facebook page
1158
00:47:40,167 --> 00:47:44,877
{\an1}that 2014 will be
his final season in baseball.
1159
00:47:44,972 --> 00:47:48,542
{\an1}I thought that was the most
efficient way to do it,
1160
00:47:48,642 --> 00:47:50,542
{\an1}you know, and I could do it
in my own words.
1161
00:47:50,644 --> 00:47:52,214
{\an1}Case study
in how to do it right.
1162
00:47:52,312 --> 00:47:55,352
{\an1}He saw that probably they were
gonna try to treat him
1163
00:47:55,449 --> 00:47:58,049
{\an1}probably the same way
that they treated me.
1164
00:47:58,152 --> 00:48:01,622
{\an1}Derek sort of foresaw that,
and he said,
1165
00:48:01,722 --> 00:48:03,722
{\an1}"I’m gonna have the last laugh
1166
00:48:03,824 --> 00:48:05,664
{\an1}and get to go out
on my own terms."
1167
00:48:05,759 --> 00:48:08,089
{\an1}Man: You’re not an emotional
person, at least not outwardly.
1168
00:48:08,195 --> 00:48:09,995
{\an1}Do you feel more emotional
than a normal day?
1169
00:48:10,097 --> 00:48:12,667
{\an1}Because you’re not really
showing that, if you are.
1170
00:48:12,766 --> 00:48:15,806
{\an1}You trying to get me
to cry, John? [ Chuckles ]
1171
00:48:18,105 --> 00:48:20,975
{\an1}Woman: The captain is leading
his team out into the field
1172
00:48:21,074 --> 00:48:22,814
{\an1}of the very last Opening Day.
1173
00:48:22,910 --> 00:48:24,910
{\an1}He’s the first one out there.
1174
00:48:25,012 --> 00:48:26,682
{\an1}Jeter: Yeah, it was
uncomfortable. It was.
1175
00:48:26,780 --> 00:48:29,850
{\an1}It was a difficult year to play.
It was.
1176
00:48:29,950 --> 00:48:32,750
{\an1}I didn’t realize how difficult
it was going to be.
1177
00:48:32,853 --> 00:48:36,823
{\an1}Announcer:
Jeter bobbles and falls down.
1178
00:48:36,924 --> 00:48:38,364
{\an1}Olney:
We got some insight
1179
00:48:38,459 --> 00:48:42,189
{\an1}into how the Yankees
were beginning to view Derek
1180
00:48:42,296 --> 00:48:45,466
{\an1}more as a product
than as a player.
1181
00:48:45,566 --> 00:48:48,376
{\an1}You know, in the past, you may
have seen the Yankees say,
1182
00:48:48,469 --> 00:48:50,529
{\an1}"You know what? We’re gonna
talk about second base.
1183
00:48:50,637 --> 00:48:53,177
{\an1}We’re gonna talk about,
you know, a lesser role."
1184
00:48:53,273 --> 00:48:55,143
{\an1}Derek was treated differently.
1185
00:48:55,242 --> 00:48:57,612
{\an1}They needed Derek on the field
1186
00:48:57,711 --> 00:49:00,581
{\an1}so they could put people
in the stands and make money.
1187
00:49:00,681 --> 00:49:02,511
{\an1}"You know,
we’re gonna look the other way
1188
00:49:02,616 --> 00:49:04,316
{\an1}in terms of how
that player’s performing.
1189
00:49:04,418 --> 00:49:06,088
{\an1}We’re gonna keep
running him out there
1190
00:49:06,186 --> 00:49:07,556
{\an1}because the fans love him."
1191
00:49:07,654 --> 00:49:09,354
{\an1}And that’s something
that had not really happened
1192
00:49:09,456 --> 00:49:11,096
{\an1}in the Yankees’ history.
1193
00:49:11,191 --> 00:49:13,221
{\an1}Sherman: I think everybody
involved with the Yankees
1194
00:49:13,327 --> 00:49:17,397
{\an1}was always concerned
about, like, offending Jeter.
1195
00:49:17,498 --> 00:49:21,268
{\an1}And I’m like -- Jeter’s history
is built on the perception
1196
00:49:21,368 --> 00:49:24,168
{\an1}that he always wants to do
what’s right for the team
1197
00:49:24,271 --> 00:49:25,771
{\an1}and right for winning.
1198
00:49:25,873 --> 00:49:29,713
{\an1}And I’m not sure that hitting
Derek Jeter number one or two
1199
00:49:29,810 --> 00:49:32,340
{\an1}is helping the Yankees win.
1200
00:49:32,446 --> 00:49:35,516
{\an1}I talked to him about
moving down in the lineup.
1201
00:49:35,616 --> 00:49:36,856
{\an1}You know, he was like,
1202
00:49:36,950 --> 00:49:39,220
{\an1}"Give me two weeks.
Give me two weeks.
1203
00:49:39,319 --> 00:49:42,219
{\an1}And I’ll show you that
you shouldn’t move me down."
1204
00:49:42,322 --> 00:49:44,692
{\an1}And knowing Derek,
the person that always tried
1205
00:49:44,791 --> 00:49:48,561
{\an1}to defy Father Time and always
tried to prove you wrong,
1206
00:49:48,662 --> 00:49:50,362
{\an1}you know,
I’m gonna give him a chance.
1207
00:49:50,464 --> 00:49:52,404
{\an1}He had some good months.
He had some rough months.
1208
00:49:52,499 --> 00:49:55,669
{\an1}But it was that belief
in himself that made him great.
1209
00:49:55,769 --> 00:49:58,369
{\an1}And I thought that
he had earned that right.
1210
00:49:58,472 --> 00:50:01,142
{\an1}Olney: When you have a star
as big as Derek was,
1211
00:50:01,241 --> 00:50:03,941
{\an1}a lot of times organizations
will wait for that player
1212
00:50:04,044 --> 00:50:07,044
{\an1}to say,
"Hey, maybe now it’s time."
1213
00:50:07,147 --> 00:50:09,217
{\an1}At some point,
Derek, as the captain --
1214
00:50:09,316 --> 00:50:12,626
{\an1}I thought he would go in
to Joe’s office and say,
1215
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,149
{\an1}"Look, if you need
to drop me down the lineup,
1216
00:50:15,255 --> 00:50:16,495
{\an1}I’m all for that."
1217
00:50:16,590 --> 00:50:17,990
{\an1}And as far as I know,
that never happened.
1218
00:50:18,091 --> 00:50:20,561
{\an1}I think that’s something
he should have done.
1219
00:50:20,661 --> 00:50:23,431
{\an1}What kind of shit is that?
That’s what I would say.
1220
00:50:23,530 --> 00:50:25,900
{\an1}You think I’m not a team player?
1221
00:50:25,999 --> 00:50:31,469
{\an1}So leaving an asinine comment
like that makes no sense.
1222
00:50:31,572 --> 00:50:34,812
{\an1}As a competitor, you go out
there like you got to prove
1223
00:50:34,908 --> 00:50:39,578
{\an1}to everyone else and yourself
that you can turn shit around.
1224
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:41,240
{\an1}That’s what you do, you know?
1225
00:50:41,348 --> 00:50:44,088
{\an1}I haven’t given up
a day in my life,
1226
00:50:44,184 --> 00:50:46,984
{\an1}and I’m not gonna give up
a day in my life.
1227
00:50:47,087 --> 00:50:51,257
{\an1}Now, if they felt as though
they wanted to sit me down more,
1228
00:50:51,358 --> 00:50:52,728
{\an1}they wanted to move me down --
1229
00:50:52,826 --> 00:50:56,166
{\an1}And if they do it,
then, hey, being a team player,
1230
00:50:56,263 --> 00:50:57,293
{\an1}I’m not gonna complain.
1231
00:50:57,397 --> 00:50:58,507
{\an1}I’m gonna do it.
1232
00:50:58,599 --> 00:51:00,099
{\an1}But you don’t go volunteer,
saying --
1233
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:01,670
{\an1}Man, that’s just
the wrong mind-set.
1234
00:51:01,768 --> 00:51:04,098
{\an1}You know, champions don’t have
that kind of mind-set.
1235
00:51:04,204 --> 00:51:05,904
{\an1}When shit gets hard,
that’s when you --
1236
00:51:06,006 --> 00:51:08,716
{\an1}that’s when you try
to prove people wrong.
