Trea Turner honored Derek Jeter with his very own jump-throw

By Matt Monagan

Derek Jeter Night took place at Yankee Stadium on Sunday night, where the venerable shortstop got his number retired alongside franchise legends. A-Rod, Carlos Gomez and other players from the past and present took to social media to honor No. 2, but during Game 1 of the Nationals-Phillies doubleheader, Trea Turner took things a step further -- executing a pretty spot-on impression of Jeter's jump-throw.

What a guy.

Unfortunately, the Nats ended up losing the game, 4-3. Maybe Turner can channel Jeter in another way to help Washington win Game 2?
