NOTE: These coordinates bring you to an intersection. To determine the correct coordinates you will need to brush up on your knowledge of one of the Greatest New York Yankees of All Time -- Derek Jeter.
FTF will find the "On My Way to Cooperstown" trackable.
Deker Jeter has been the centerpiece of the most recent Yankees Dynasty since he came up to the team in 1995. Jeter, along with Jorge Posada, Andy Pettitte and Mariano Rivera led the Yankees to World Series Championships in 1996, 1998-2000 and 2009.
Interestingly, though he won four Gold Glove awards, Jeter's defense has been the subject of criticism from a number of sabermetricians, including Rob Neyer and the publication Baseball Prospectus. The book The Fielding Bible by John Dewan contains an essay by Bill James in which he concludes that Jeter "was probably the most ineffective defensive player in the major leagues, at any position." A 2008 study by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania found that, from 2002 through 2005, Jeter was the worst defensive shortstop in the Major Leagues.
