BTW, Rodriguez is batting .290 with 33 homers. Veritek is batting .260 away from Fenway. His average against the Yankees is .230 I guess that means the Yanks won't be throwing at him, right?
Well, I was just making a point - the pitcher has a bit of a control problem on occasion. I seriously doubt it was an intentional hit. If that had been Jeeter, I am almost absolutely certain that Jeeter would have just made his way to first base and not given it another thought.
A-rod was a spoiled brat when he was here in Seattle, and he certainly hasn't changed any...
