Neither during his time as a Yankees shortstop nor during his leadership against the Miami Marlins after retirement were enough for Jeter to enter the most popular social networks, Twitter and Instagram, but now Jeter he decided to enter to have a greater connection with his fans.
As for the first content he posted on Twitter, it was a response to a tweet from 2014 from an Internet user who commented that “Derek Jeter no longer has an excuse not to have a Twitter account”, something that the number 2 of the Yankees answered jokingly.
“ It seems that I have officially run out of excuses, “he said.
For his part, on Instagram Jeter posted a video in which he assures that he is going to have a “complicated summer” in the coming days but that despite that he decided to take a step forward deal with social media.
Former Yankees, CC Sabathia, Alex Rodríguez and even actor Mark Wahlberg made comments about Jeter’s appearance in the online.
