Billy Crystal talks about baseball with the same poetry that Vin Scully had when calling a game. Such a gifted storyteller.

Derek Jeter was my Joe DiMaggio.

Years later I still get choked up watching these Jeter videos. I grew up idolizing him. I was just 7 years old when he was drafted. I was 12 at my first Yankee game when I got his autograph. I followed his career all the way to the end. His memorabilia along with other yankee greats decorate my home office. He will always be our captain. Thanks #2.

I honestly have never felt the same watching the Yankees (my favorite team my whole life) since he has been gone, and yes I cried when he retired.

Billy should have just been a professional "tribute giver" - he does it so well. :)

He's the reason why i'm a yankee fan.

I’m almost the same age as Jeter and I feel like I watched Jeter play my entire life and as much I love the Yankees is never been the same for me, when he retired a part of me left with him!

I am a METS fan, but this is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a Jays fan, but I'm in awe of Jeter. He was always a classy hard playing Guy. Never a self centred player like others. I'll miss watching him. Nice tribute Billy.

Derek was my favorite baseball player of all time. Sure there were more iconic legends but he is the genuine article. He was a man who a child can hope to emulate! He was a player in my time. There was the Babe, but Derek was the best during the past 20 years. He will be missed. He excelled the whole time.

Billy Crystal is the best!

memories of Derek and those truly great Yankee teams and Yankee moments are deeply emotional.

There will never be another like Derek Jeter. Ever.

When. Billy Crystal speaks..... You listen

I did not cry when he retired but I knew this might be the last time in my lifetime that I see a team with players like Bernie Williams, Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada and Andy Pettite all home grown players dominate the baseball world. I will never see it again and so far I was right.

miss you Captain. Yankees will be back on top again soon.

Who is cutting onions

Oh my captain. We sill love and miss you. As a baby coming home swaddled in a Yankees blanket to Woodlawn, Bronx. You're the best of my life. Thank you.

My brother stole my DJ glove and brought it to Texas... my Dad made him send it back... i cried and hugged the glove slept with it under my pillow! Thank you

he wasent kidding about playing all nine innings

Derek will always be my Yankee. I love him more than anything.

So this is what it sounds like when GOATs talk about GOATs and this Billy GOAT has spoken about some of the Greatest GOATs of all time. Rumble GOAT man Rumble. A true class in everything he has done that I have ever seen.

I am willing to go out on a limb and say this. I grew up in the greatest era of sports. I grew up with super stars of the 80's the 90s and early 00's I got to watch the likes of Peyton Manning, Wayne Gretzky, Derek Jeter, Michael Jordan to name a small fraction of the amazing athletes in my time and so the rest is gravy, whom ever comes now is just a bonus, but I will always cherish these years.

Now it's time to sit in the Yankees gear and watch Analyze This for the millionth time....

Derek Jeter is a total class act. Fabulous athlete , incredible leader , Hits, one of the top clutch hitters ever . 1995- 2000 Yankees we're special ! He's one of top greatest Yankees Just like Dimaggio , Mantle , Whitey , Yogi , one of a kind ! Thanks Derek !! 🙋‍♂️👍⚾️🏆👏

One Of The Great Baseball Player That Play For The Yankees For Twenty Season. The Captain Will Be Miss. Fonamenal Player All Around. May God Bless Forever.🙏👌⚾️🏆

David and hanna so beautiful these two wish I could see them liveeeeeee I like beautiful people

Two words describe Jeter "Class Act", his parents raised a fine man!

Derek Jeter left the field and now it's time for Gary Sanchez and Aaron judge to continue the Yankee legacy

Glad the lockout's over and can't wait for the regular season to start. Had to watch this again for about the billionth time. O's fan here, but damn I loved watching The Captain play

He truly was the best and he was the definition of baseball He gave us his all every game from start to finish He is a role model if there ever was one. He was admired by all especially me I miss him not playing but I thank him in the same breath for giving me so much enjoyment all those years! Love you Jeter #2.💜💝

When I was a child growing up in New York, I wanted to play shortstop for the Yankees. Bucky Dent was my idol!

Billy Crystal's favorite subject is himself. It never ends.

A class act he was !

... and I cry like a baby.

So true Billy, you are also in my memory an MVP of comedy, so natural , so good at your craft while being a real person...beautiful tribute to the GOAT #2_ from one of the best of all time ! Billy there was something in the air or water of the Bronx Brooklyn Queens the from to 40s , 50s, 60's 70s that was true and good that WE ALL recognize! I miss seeing you regularly perfecting your craft, your story telling skills, timing and good nature , I will never forget!

Billions and Billions of people have come and gone and there are still and always will be One of a Kinds. #2, you are One of them.

“Take a good last look, This is a baseball player”

Man I miss the late 90s and early 2000’s Yankee teams with derek Jeter . Paul O’Neill , Andy Pettitte Clemens and Bernie Williams among with others they were really the heart of New York at the time even tho I’m from jersey city I was a big New York sports fan

Much re2pect for Jeter coming from a Red Sox fan! I miss him playing.

Every team has a hero. Boston had David Ortiz. Yes there are some Red Sox fans that dislike the Yankees but still show respect for certain players and number 2 was one of them. So let's raise our glass and honor him. Thank you for all the great times in Boston and New York.

Why am I crying 😭

One of the greatest of the greats....number 2 Derek Jeter....peace

Billy Crystal.....Class.

To watch the Red Sox, pay tribute to this player of consummate dignity, despite being a member of the HATED YANKEES, was truly moving

I didn't see the flip. Or the 81 from Kobe. But I for damn sure saw both their last games and I will forever cherish those two men for what they meant to my generation

Derek Jeter will be the first inductee to the HOF by unanimous vote.

From one class act to another.

I've never heard anybody speak like Billy crystal. If you get a chance you tube him talk at Muhammad Ali's funeral mass. AMAZING !!!!

That was awesome. Jeter Jeter Jeter

Look at jeter man so inspirational

Ohh Billy

I miss Derek Jeter.

So much class

My Captain ❤️

Billy new all the great sportsmen

Who is here after the HOF voting? This Jeter fan is!

If your not capable of seeing the best of this human being then nobody is ever good deal with a little to say I don't know ❤

Shoulda been unanimous

Baseball may have diminished in popularity over the years, but it's still a grand game...and players like Jeter, make it that way. I miss watching the kid play..and I remember Maris and Mantle, when I was a kid, and I'd put Jeter right up there with them, Let Alone Gehrig and Ruth..Jeter classed the game...and he will be missed...

Even when the greats lost a step or 2. Babe will still be Babe. Lou, will still be Lou, Joe, will still be Joe, Yogi, will still be Yogi, Mickey, will still be Mickey, and of course...Derek, will still be Derek. Greatness.

All those great players with big time numbers and this guy can do this or that but when you need it the most in the toughest spot just give me number 2

It breaks my heart to see Derek resign but I also watched Thurmon die. Please help me get thurmon into the hall of fame.

2744 games, only 1 had the Yankees being eliminated from playoffs contention. Simply an amazing career. 👏 🧢2️⃣

There are hero's and there is history....DJ was both

A. Great ballplayer but most of all a great human being

Walk-off single in final game. Nuff said! #HOF

Thank you to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for allowing me to witness Derek Jeter... We were all blessed! We witnessed greatness...

42 et 24,la casquette, off,2,385 ft , il s'accroupie, Kodak, haleine,chewing-gum, zoo,terre,respect, 🙏🙏..

How did it end? With a gamewinning single.

Screw Billy Crystal! Some of you treat him as he played 15 seasons with them and entered the BBHOF!

"its getting dark and time to come in for souper" COME ON Billy you didnt have to go that hard...

Go south haven MI

Res Sox forever!

red Sox

He's a frickin baseball player for cryin out loud!!

Fckn WalkOff HM that's how he ended it!!! #Re2pect

Would have been funny if he forgot who he was tribbing and started doing his "brilliant" Ali impression instead.

OK, Billy.. Then what's with the hat in City Slickers?

Is it too early for people to finally tell the truth about his play and stats?

The ya Jews are the best hands down no team comes close like us or hate us

Derek Jeter and Alberto Sordi 💦(ASSOmiglianze)💦 - di MAURIZIO SPAGNA

He left in the 3rd inning. Sorry, Billy.

One of the best Yankee team was 1998, I thought the 2022 Yankees was going to be another great team, that’s not going to happen. Yankees brace for big disappointment in the next 2-4 weeks

This hit had zero meaning to anything only Jeters ego. The Yankees were eliminated. Actually 2 games before with Yankees hanging onto playoff hopes the great Jeter struck out. And that at bat mattered

#2 is my #1 All Time Baller.

CORNYYY

Billy Crystal sucks never funnu

the team and he. what awful grammar. i'm out! it offends my ears!!

Yeah Billy is a big Yankees fan but he is still just a shill Hollywood liberal that only got to walk the field cause he sucked up to Steinbrenner. Derek was just nice to him cause that's who Derek is: a nice guy and also a very devout Catholic. He does the same thing for everyone he meets. I'm sure he was not in agreement with Billy getting all political during the election. Derek is smart and knows it isn't wise to piss off half your fanbase even after retirement cause you never know when you will need to call on them again for a future career move. Sometimes you are better off staying silent and stoic and leave the commentary to the pundits. Derek never ran his mouth or talked trash about politics or anything else. Especially not at a funeral like Billy did at Ali's.

It's not funny. It's not fun.

Only Derek Jeter gets a lowlight reel, so overrated 😹😹

To have this Jew gabler do a Tribute is like saying WE RUN THINGS ... They should be a no Kats allowed poster in every stadium
