Over the years, baseball legend Derek Jeter has achieved many titles, but there are still some things Jeter is not perfect at. After all, if a human won’t make mistakes, who will? The shortstop recently shared a picture of him trying to hack up one of the Halloween traditions, but, unfortunately, failed at it.

The Yankees Captain has shared a couple of his Halloween pictures in previous years. One of which is of him as a kid dressed up as a scary clown. Whereas the other is from a few years back with his now wife, Hannah Jeter, being dressed up as the devil and angel. He pulled off the devil costume in a way that could easily scare someone. 

While the shortstop may not have shown his Halloween costume this year, he did give his fans a glimpse of what went in his house. There are many traditions that come with Halloween, such as visiting haunting houses, trick-or-treating, and many more. One such important ordeal for many people is making Jack-o’-Lanterns, and apparently, the shortstop is not very good at it.
