The life of Derek Jeter, former shortstop for the New York Yankees and member of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Superb documentary on an extremely talented baseball player. Takes you through his life and baseball career, from younger years to Minor Leagues to the Majors and success with the Yankees. Also covers his post-playing career and his personal life.
Not just a linear event-by-event account of his career, but through interviews with himself, his family, former teammates, opposition players and staff, baseball reporters and baseball experts we get to see what made him so great, not just on the field but off it, e.g. Handling the media, PR in general, avoiding the trappings of fame.
Very interesting and illuminating and a blueprint for other aspiring sportspeople.
