WFAN: Derek Jeter on winning his 5th W.S. | WFAN: Joe Girardi on winning the W.S. | WFAN: Hideki Matsui talks about winning the WS MVP
Pettitte and Yankees teammates Derek Jeter and Jorge Posada appeared on the show Thursday night, a day after capturing the franchise's 27th title. World Series MVP Hideki Matsui later joined them on stage, carrying the championship trophy.
Pettitte says he's close to retirement and that pitching one more season ``would probably be good,'' because he wants to spend more time with his kids. Jeter jokes Pettitte has been saying that for about six straight years.
