One of the greatest nights in baseball history as one of the most famed records in the game was finally broken. Hank Aaron’s breaking of Babe Ruth’s career Home Run record took place 40 years ago today and even though his own record has since be passed by Barry Bonds this day still brings back great memories.
It’s official another Yankees great will be calling it a career and this time its the captain Derek Jeter.
I’ve never met Alex Rodriguez. This shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone. I’ve never been within 100 yards of the man. All I know of him is what I’ve seen since his debut so many years ago. All I know is the immense talent and skill that’s been on display since his days with the Seattle Mariners, the Texas Rangers and now the New York Yankees. Those that do know him or have come in contact with him say he’s an arrogant, self-centered jerk and they might be right. You don’t have to know the man personally to see that. It was never more evident than when he interrupted the World Series in 2007 to announce he was opting out of his contract with the Yankees…only to receive an even bigger contract with the Yankees. So yes, Alex Rodriguez is a douche. But even douches should be treated fairly.
It’s that time again baseball fans as the world eagerly awaits to see who will be chosen to compete in the annual midsummer classic. Both rosters include plenty of new faces and a few old making their last appearances under the All Star lights. Here are your rosters for the 2013 MLB All Star game on Tuesday July 16th at Citi Field in Queens, NY.
