PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — For the last few days, all fans of baseball paid homage to “The Captain,” aka Derek Jeter. The love spread all the way to Boston where the typical rivals of Jeter’s Yankees honored him in his final series against Boston.
Twitter was flooded with plenty of well wishes and memories for Jeter and one particular wife of a Red Sox player was not left out.
Ashley Kelly, the wife of Red Sox pitcher Joe Kelly, sent the following tweet after her husband took the opportunity to grab a selfie with Jeter.
Of course we have to check out the selfie that led to that tweet.
Talk about a coincidence.
