CHARLOTTE--New York Yankees star Derek Jeter had surgery in Charlotte on Saturday.
Dr. Robert Anderson operated on the shortstop to repair a broken ankle.

Team officials said Jeter will need four to five months to completely recover.
Dr. Anderson is a team physician for the Carolina Panthers and consults with a number of collegiate and professional teams.
