With bated breath and a frog in my throat I am here to
bring you the final game thread for the career of one Mr. Alex Emmanuel
Rodriguez. I’m a fan and I own a blog, I’m not an insider and I’m damn sure not
getting paid for this, so I am allowed to bring my emotions, my passion and my
fandom into this and I absolutely, 100% will tonight. I grew up watching and
idolizing Alex Rodriguez when everyone else was sporting their #2 jerseys and
tonight is a bittersweet night for me. In Alex’s final game inside Yankees
pinstripes and Yankee Stadium the team will send CC Sabathia to the mound to
square off with the Rays starter Chris Archer. The game will be played at 7:05
pm ET inside Yankee Stadium and can be seen on the YES Network, FOX and MLB TV.
To see either of the other two games this series with Tampa
or to catch the new-look Yankees going forward this season be sure to click the
Yankees Tickets link at the top of the blog where you can secure your seats
without paying an arm and a leg in fees and shipping costs. Ticket Monster
doesn’t charge either of them. Also be sure to click the TGP T-Shirts link also
located at the top of the blog to look the part and showcase your fandom while
hanging out with the Bleacher Creatures in the Bronx.
Goodbye Alex, and thank you. Go Yankees and Go A-Rod. Slap
about five or six home runs tonight and let Randy Levin sweat over you reaching
700 home runs despite his best efforts to keep you from it.
I was always a fan of Cones' until to-night!
ReplyDeleteWhen asked about A-Rod and his chances of the HoF he said something like, maybe, yes, but maybe with an * or something! That is Bull Shit, look at guys like Ortiz, Bonds and Big Mac!
I wonder how many are in the HoF or about to be in the Hall that cheated with drugs of some kind?
Hell, as far as I am concerned, all the armor the hitters have should be called cheating it gives the hitter an advantage as did lowering the pitching mound.
Lowering the mound has caused more TJ injuries.
696 HRs and the guys in front of him all have admitted or are Known to have used. Even "Hammering" Hank admitted to using pills.
Good-bye A-Rod, have fun!
