MLB won’t release name of writer that didn’t vote for Yankees Derek Jeter

Yankees fans are divided at the moment. On one side of the fence, some find it incomprehensible that one voter out of 397 believed Derek Jeter should not be enshrined in the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

Over on the other side, there are those that could care less that DJ wasn’t unanimously elected.

Jeter’s now a Hall of Famer, and it’s unfair to solely focus on the fact that he missed 100 percent of the ballot by a single vote.

As a boy turned man that idolized Jeter, proudly wearing his jersey, imitating his batting stance and forever referring to him as my favorite player, I will do my best to solely focus on the fact that Jeets is months away from being enshrined as just the 26th shortstop ever.
