During an interview of Jeter ' ex team ate, Tina Martinez, Martinez says, "He led by example,"His whole career has been that way. Plays hard, plays to win. Expects the most from his teammates. When you're in battle with a guy like that, it's important not to let him down. From superstars to the 25th man on the roster, we all felt a responsibility to play hard and play to win because of Jeter. That's rare." Jeter will finish his career with 5 World Series victories. The Red So, Yankees long time rivals, even plan to celery Jeter last game at few a park. Not all agree that Jeter is the best of all time, but almost everyone shares an immense respect for what he has done for this game.
