To six-time champ Jordan, pal Jeter an idol

Michael Jordan was one of the surprise guests for Derek Jeter’s on-field ceremony on Sunday, walking out of the first-base dugout after Hall of Famers Cal Ripken Jr. and Dave Winfield were introduced. Having tracked Jeter’s career over the past two decades and enjoyed common ground as a leading Nike pitchman with the captain, Jordan has grown to become a big fan of Jeter’s.
