Derek Jeter’s Shocking Thought of “Coming Out of Retirement” Leaves MLB Fans With an Exciting Present to Enjoy

Since 2014, MLB: The Show 22 stands as the sole MLB simulation game in the gaming industry. And while the entire baseball world widely loves it, its most recent release faced criticism after a not-so-popular Marlins All-Star made it to the cover page. But in little to no time after criticism surrounded the latest edition, MLB: The Show 23 has delivered a spectacular Derek Jeter surprise that is bringing the former defensive superstar back in the ballpark, and out of retirement.

Recently, after arriving on the Tonight Show hosted by his close friend Jimmy Fallon, and surprising the world with a rather kinky revelation, Jeter stunned the Big Apple with these four words: “coming out of retirement.”

Fans welcome a special Derek Jeter gift as the legend comes out of retirement

After discussing Jazz Chisholm Jr., Jimmy Fallon made the revelation of MLB: The Show 23’s collective edition featuring Jeter on the cover.

Shortly after Fallon’s announcement, the 14-time All-Star questioned his retirement and spoke about his plans to return to the ballpark. He said, “You know, I’ve been contemplating coming out of retirement for a few years.”

The five-time World Champion continued, “Then I figured it’s a lot easier to do it in a video game.” As a result of Jeter’s feature on the cover, fans are delighted. This is how they reacted:

Second baseman turned center fielder Bahamian-born Jazz Chisholm Jr. featured on the cover of the 23 edition of the game, and Derek Jeter had only praises for him after bringing him to Miami in 2020.

Captain Clutch played a role in bringing Jazz to the Marlins

In 2020, Jazz Chisholm Jr. made his MLB debut with the Miami Marlins as a second baseman, under the helm of Derek Jeter. The then-Marlins CEO Jeter expressed his pride after Chisholm Jr. made it to the cover of MLB The Show.

Jeter said, “You know the great thing about Jazz is, he’s from the Bahamas, and baseball is such an international sport. You love to see this, because, you know, he’s setting an example for young men and women growing up in the Bahamas knowing that they have an opportunity to make it to, you know, the top of their profession. So I couldn’t be prouder of him. It’s a big deal to be on the cover.”
