New York Yankees’ legend and current Miami Marlins’ CEO Derek Jeter had to wait a little longer than expected to get to the Hall of Fame. He was, after all, elected a little more than 19 months ago with the second-highest percentage ever (99.7%.) The pandemic got in the way in 2020, and the induction ceremony had to be suspended for obvious reasons.
This time, however, everything is set for the former Yankees’ captain to enter the Hall and be on the same level as some of the legendary players in the sport. He will officially be a Hall of Famer on September 8, when the ceremony in Cooperstown takes place.
