Derek Jeter: dernière saison en 2014

Pour les new-yorkais, mais aussi pour les amateurs de baseball, le départ du célèbre joueur des Yankees marque la fin d'une époque.

 "The 39-year-old captain posted a long letter on his Facebook page Wednesday saying that 2014 will be his final year.

 A 13-time All-Star who has led the Yankees to five World Series championships, Jeter was limited to 17 games last season while trying to recover from a broken left ankle sustained in the 2012 playoffs.

 "I know it in my heart. The 2014 season will be my last year playing professional baseball," he wrote.

Jeter was the last link to the powerful Yankees teams that won three straight World Series crowns from 1998-2000. Longtime teammates Mariano Rivera and Andy Pettitte retired after last year."
