In this article, Derek jeter, a captain of the New York Yankees and one of the best to play the game of baseball, thanks the city of New York and gives his goodbye to them. He starts off by talking about his youth living in a small town and out in the Midwest, and how he didn’t know how he’d adapt to everything about being a yankee. The city, the pressure and the spotlight that he was cast into. He said the people made it worth it, their acceptance of him made it easy for him. His hard work and love for the team, fans and city made it possible. He then thanks the city again for giving him this opportunity and that the city and team would be with him forever.
This article was a thank you letter by Derek Jeter an all time great and childhood hero of many, including myself. His hard work and dedication to the city and franchise was more than you could ever ask of a player, and he was thanking them for the oppurtuniy, which shows his humility and kindness.
