Niece on Yahoo thanks to Derek Jeter
My brother, sister-in-law and niece were at the Astros/Yankees game yesterday and Derek Jeter walked over and gave her a ball during the 7th inning. The video made it on ESPN last night and Yahoo this morning. Thanks to Jeter for being a classy guy. Baseball is going to miss him.

I guess it didn't hurt that she had a Jeter shirt on, glad it worked out for him. But it's nice to see people like that reaching out to kids. Those adults can go on the internet and buy a ball signed by him, kids can't necessarily do that yet.

I was watching the game, and that lady in the Astros shirt was genuinely pissed that Jeter wouldn't let her have the ball. I'm glad your niece got it. She will likely keep it where as the Astro fan would have sold it on Ebay.

This is very nice. Glad she got recognized & he gave her the ball. She will have a cool memory for life.
