Derek Jeter "2000 All Star Game & World Series MVP" Signed Bat With JSA COA
$2,295.00
Presented is a limited edition Derek Jeter signed and inscribed Louisville Slugger Model P72 baseball bat. The Hall of Fame New York Yankees shortstop signed his name in silver metallic paint pen in the center of the barrel of the black wood bat. Jeter inscribed “2000 AS WS MVP” below his signature, also in silver metallic paint pen. The signature and the inscription are to the right of the embossed Louisville Slugger logo in silver. The bat is inscribed “48/102” in silver marker to the right of the embossed silver “Genuine P72 Derek Jeter New York Yankees” brand. Jeter batted a team-best .339 in the 2000 Major League Baseball regular season and added 15 home runs, 73 RBIs, 119 runs scored, and 22 stolen bases. In the 2000 MLB All-Star Game, he recorded three hits, including a two-run single that gave his team the lead and victory. The performance earned him the All-Star Game MVP Award, the first time a Yankee won the award. During the postseason, he batted only .211 in the Division Series but rebounded to hit .318 in the Championship Series against the Seattle Mariners, and .409 in the World Series against the New York Mets. Jeter added two home runs, a triple, and two doubles in the World Series, including a leadoff home run on the first pitch of Game 4 and a triple later in the third inning. His home run in Game 5 tied the game and extended his World Series hitting streak to 14 games. The Yankees defeated the Mets in five games for their third consecutive title and fourth in Jeter's first five full seasons. Jeter won the World Series MVP Award, becoming the only player to win the All-Star Game MVP and World Series MVP Awards in the same season. This item comes with a LOA from JSA (XX37699).
