A thing that is always left in the mind of a person is the things they want to change by going into the past. There might or might not be any regrets. But there are some things that a person would like to change. The changes would be for the present and future to get even better. There is one such thing that the baseball legend, Derek Jeter, wants to change and regret it to this day.

Ever since he started playing baseball, the shortstop has won many awards. Jeter has won Rookie of the year in 1996.  The biggest achievement in baseball by getting inducted into the Hall of Fame. He also had his jersey number retired by the New York Yankees in 2017. 

According to him, there is no such thing that a person should be regretting. Because even mistakes shape a person into who they are. But he still does regret one thing. 

What is the one thing that Derek Jeter would change if he could?

Around a week ago, the Hall of Famer Derek Jeter sat down with Angie Martinez for an episode of her podcast. There, they talked about multiple things. The stuff they talked about included how Jeter is at peace with his daughters not knowing much about his career.
