Ahead of Friday night's New York Yankees-Tampa Bay Rays game in the Bronx, "The Captain" will return to Yankee Stadium for "Derek Jeter Night."

On Friday morning, Jeter posted a video to Twitter -- presumably filmed by his wife, model Hannah Davis. While the video is only filming the Hall of Fame shortstop, you can hear (presumably) Davis and one of the couple's daughters talking about their upcoming Friday night trip to the stadium.
The youngster had some interesting things to say ahead of the visit.

Aside from the understandably strong desire for ice cream, the adorable concern of going on the field because she's "not a good baseball player" and the wild guess that there'd be 160 fans at the game, another gem came when Jeter's injury history was brought up. Though it's not clear which injury his daughter is referring to when she mentions No. 2 "breaking his leg," the closest thing might be when Jeter suffered a fractured ankle during Game 1 of the 2012 ALCS.
Regardless of how much food the family ends up getting at the game and whether all or some of them make their way onto the diamond, it's sure to be a memorable night for the crew.
