ESPN to Air Encore Of 'Mr. November' 2001 World Series Game To Celebrate Derek Jeter’s Hall of Fame Career

ESPN is celebrating the Hall of Fame career of New York Yankees legend Derek Jeter on the Tuesday, May 12, presentation of MLB Encore Tuesdays. Fans voted from a selection of five classic Jeter games to select the game of the week. The winning selection is Jeter’s iconic “Mr. November” performance from the 2001 World Series Game 4, when the captain hit a walk-off home run just after midnight on Nov. 1, giving the Yankees a win in the first World Series game ever played in November. MLB Encore Tuesdays begins at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN and the ESPN App.

Special Assistant to the Commissioner, National Baseball Hall-of-Famer and former Yankees manager Joe Torre will join BBTN Live at 7:30 p.m. to discuss his memories of managing the epic “Mr. November” game with host Clinton Yates and ESPN Senior MLB Writer Ian O’Connor.
