In his first few years in Major League Baseball, D.J. is already attracting Major League Attention. As a shortstop, his fielding skills are superb, and getting better. But it's as a hitter that Derek really shines. His batting average is close to .350, and in 1997 he became the third player ever to score 100 or more runs in each of his first two seasons. Derek is racking up awards and honors as his career continues to rocket into the stratosphere. |  |
| Baseball is a mental as well as a physical game, and Derek Sanderson Jeter has mastered both aspects. On the field he's all concentration , yet he remains loose and ready for anything, no matter how crucial the situation. His professional get-down-to-business attitude has helped him hone his skills, and he's improved consistently every year he's played the game. Derek's determination, constant improvement and dedication to winning make him a great spokesman for Gatorade. If he continues at this pace, Derek Jeter is in line to make it to the Hall of Fame. In fact, most of his fans have put him there already. Someone please tell him that most 26-year-olds don't have three World Series rings. | |
