Since retiring from baseball, a lot has changed for Derek Jeter. The former Yankee star has tried his hand at management as part owner and CEO of the Miami Marlins. But after stepping down from that role, he has not been involved with baseball. Jeter has been involved in his own personal projects as of late and other business ventures.

Meanwhile, the Yankee legend has been enjoying being a father to his three daughters. A few years back, when Jeter was expecting his first child with his wife Hannah, he went on the Tonight Show and talked about the experience. During this appearance, Jeter reportedly cracked a very funny joke.
