Did I hear he was a steroid freak. I’m not interested in him.

It was his first ever pinch hit home run.

I wish they would go back to 154 games. The season is just too long now.

I think A-Rod -- and Major League Baseball -- would have been much better off if the trade to the Red Sox hadn't been overturned back in 2004. He would have been happier, he would have stayed at shortstop, and he wouldn't have played under such pressure in New York.
I'm not a big fan of the guy, but he was an amazing ballplayer even long before the steroid issues surfaced.

Wonder how many he’d have if it wasn’t for the “juice”. Pathetic.

He gets a $6,000,000 bonus for that one too.

He like so many others are cheaters and in my book their records don’t count.

Meh, it doesn’t really count. How many of those were due to PEDs? And don’t give me that crap about “greenies” in Mays’s era. There no comparison.

“Say Hey” did it without the juice. Nothing to see here.

“Alex Rodriguez hits a pinch-hit home run to tie Willie Mays at 660 home runs”
And the Cincinnati Reds won the 1919 World Series.

Good for him. I’d like to see Arod redeem himself before he retires. Enough of the hypocrites and their delicious tears. These guys saved baseball and since the homers have gone down so has attendance. If you love the pure game so much why are the seats empty? Ruth’s era played against only whites. Willie Mays era took meth. Half of baseball’s early HOFers didnt even play night games. Give it a rest. Good job Arod, Bonds, Sosa, McGwire and thank you for keeping baseball relevant. Congrats.

I’m glad he’s playing well and earning his money.

Every home run record for the past 30 years should come with an asterisk. Today’s baseball players play in Little League stadiums. Have you seen the size of those behemoth stadiums from the old days? Almost 500 feet to the center field fence.

Gotta love the AL — he was pinch hitting for the “Designated Hitter”...leaves me scratching my head about weird rules. You already have a “gimme” slot by the pitcher not having to bat and then you can “pinch hit” somebody else into that spot???
