Description
This is a shot of Derek Jeter preparing for an at bat in May, 2014. According to an excerpt of his forthcoming book, "Unfiltered," he regularly prays during games. Writing about his last at bat at Yankee Stadium: "I kneeled and prayed the way I always have. But this time my prayer was a little different. I said, 'God, if I have one more big moment in me, now is the time.'"

I am very grateful to the buyer from Beverly, Massachusetts, who purchased an 8x10 Luster Photo Paper print of this image. Thank you so much. Enjoy!

Just read this in an article about Derek Jeter's forthcoming book, "Unfiltered." "Before I took my last at bat," Jeter writes, "I kneeled and prayed the way I always have. But this time my prayer was a little different. I said, 'God, if I have one more big moment in me, now is the time.'" http://www.nj.com/yankees/index.ssf/2014/10/derek_jeter_prayed_for_big_moment_in_last_yankee_stadium_at-bat.html

I hope you're right, Lauri. I might need to find a spot on my own wall for this one.
