General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation

QPQ: Done.

Overall: The main hook is too much of an inside baseball reference, but ALT1 hook is good and works. The main image in the The Captain (miniseries) has some minor usage issues as described here, but since that image isn't being used for the DKY I'd say we're good to go. --SouthernNights (talk) 20:28, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good to me! Thanks. I will reorder it for ALT2 if it's preferred. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:23, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ALT2: ... that Derek Jeter (pictured) discusses his biracial upbringing and experiencing racism in Michigan in the 1980s and 1990s in The Captain?
