‘The Captain’ episodes 5-6 review: Derek Jeter is human after all

The fifth and sixth installments of ESPN’s Derek Jeter docuseries “The Captain” covered the latter half of the Hall of Fame shortstops career.

Two hours later, it was hard to not feel at least a little bit underwhelmed since the show once again covered subjects most people, at least us Yankees folk, already knew. Yet, not all was lost as we finally saw a real piece of the legend’s own humanity.

For example, we all know Derek Jeter deserved to win the 2006 AL MVP trophy over Minnesota’s Justin Morneau. However, we now saw The Post’s Joel Sherman implied he voted for Morneau.
