It took him 75 steps to get from third to home. I thought we were going to have to go out there and help him. A lot of players start thinking double then maybe wind up with a triple because the outfielder slips.

More quotes by Derek Jeter
I never think about my own stats, as long as I'm contributing to the team.
Derek Jeter
You gotta have fun. Regardless of how you look at it, we're playing a game. It's a business, it's our job, but I don't think you can do well unless you're having fun.

Good teams make the playoffs, hot teams win the playoffs.

Derek Jeter
Work hard, love what you do, put your best foot forward and never forget the kid in you.

In order to lead people, you have to get to know them.

For me, when I was a kid, volunteering was the last thing I was thinking about. When I see kids doing it now, it amazes me. It's very impressive, it gives them something productive to do as opposed to getting in trouble. For them to take time out at such a young age is remarkable. I think all kids should take a little time out to volunteer.
Derek Jeter
I go into every game thinking I'm going to be the hero. I have to, or I wouldn't enjoy it.
Derek Jeter
I think sometimes people need to get used to an idea.
Derek Jeter
That's how you win - pitching and defense.
