?You feel the history every time you walk into Yankee Stadium.
twenty-six championships. There are signs all over the place.
when we run into Yogi Berra in the clubhouse, that?s 10
championship rings right there. Think about that for a minute
?10, just as a player. I won four in my first five seasons here,
and I thought that was the only way it could be. It?s actually
pretty hard for most guys even to get one title.
?Right now, I do what I can to help the Yankees get that next
championship. Everyone expects us to win, and we expect no
less of ourselves. With the Yankees, whether it?s the fans, the
front office, the owner, whatever?we?re held to the highest
standard. Nobody?s tougher on us than we are on ourselves?
?I consider myself fortunate to have spent my whole career in
pinstripes. When I?m old and retired, I?ll probably look back
on this time here, and go, ?Wow! That was really something.?
?Yankees captain Derek Jeter, 2004
