The Captain has just 11 games left in his illustrious Hall of Fame career, and the Kalamazoo native has been receiving a ton of attention on his "farewell tour" this season, rightfully so.
The Jordan brand's RE2PECT advertisement that came out just before the All-Star break did very well, so now Gatorade decided to honor Jeter with their own 90 second spot.
In this new commercial, Jeter is shown riding to Yankee Stadium in the backseat of a vehicle when he all of a sudden turns to his drivers and says, "You know what, I'll walk from here."
As Frank Sinatra's "My Way" plays in the background, Jeter gets out of the car, and walks to the stadium, greeting fans along the way. At the end, Jeter nods, jogs out of the dugout and tips his cap to the crowd.
Whether you like Jeter or not, one thing is for sure, he's done things the right way. He's a baseball legend who will be greatly missed.
