1998 New York Yankees World Series Champs Team Signed Baseball Derek Jeter JSA
To date, the San Diego Padres have only made it to the World Series twice. The last time was in 1998, when they were quickly shown the door in a four-game sweep by a supremely talented New York Yankees team. Led by Hall of Fame manager Joe Torre, this was the first time the "Evil Empire's" high wattage "Core Four" group of Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada and Andy Pettitte were together for a shot at a championship, and along with the rest of their talented teammates, they came through in high style.
