2007 Derek Jeter NY Yankees Game-Used & Autographed Home Jersey with Lidle Arm Band

Derek Jeter’s 2007 Game-Worn Jersey: A Testament to Yankee Greatness

The Legacy of Derek Jeter

Derek Jeter, a name synonymous with the New York Yankees, has become an emblem of excellence and leadership in Major League Baseball. Since his debut, Jeter has been instrumental in the Yankees’ consistent playoff appearances, marking his career with numerous accolades. His journey began with the AL Rookie of the Year award in 1996, followed by the dual honor of being named the All-Star Game MVP and World Series MVP in 2000. In 2007, Jeter continued to shine, batting .322 and ranking third in the American League with 206 hits.

A Season of Milestones

The 2007 season was a hallmark of Jeter’s illustrious career. He achieved his sixth 200-hit season, a feat only matched by the legendary Lou Gehrig in franchise history. Jeter’s prowess at the plate was further highlighted by his ability to maintain four separate hitting streaks of at least 15 games, a record not seen since 1941. His remarkable consistency is underscored by his personal winning percentage of .602, the highest among active players at the time, and his leading 1,971 hits over the past decade.
