Derek Jeter Will Miss 1998 World Series Reunion at Yankee Stadium Later This Month

The 1998 Yankees are reuniting in the Bronx Aug. 18, but they will be without their captain.

The Yankees announced the list of team members who will be returning to Yankee Stadium to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their 24th championship in franchise history, but Derek Jeter, one of the most popular players in franchise history, was not on the list.

Jeter has become the owner of the Miami Marlins, so it is certainly possible that he has an obligation for his new team that he needs to address. It still has to be a bit sour for Yankees fans though, as Jeter will be the only member of the Core Four not in attendance as Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada and Andy Pettitte are all schedule to come.
