About Last Night: Alex Rodriguez finally gets a hit
Our long national nightmare is over, Alex Rodriguez finally got a base hit. In fact, he hit two!
Entering yesterday’s game, A-Rod was 2-10 with three walks and was not looking great at the plate. This, of course, led to some people, mostly dunderheads on Twitter, declaring his career over because as we all know, everything about a baseball season, and a player’s future performance, should be based upon a handful of at bats.
Here’s his spray chart for the day.
Those are the three balls he hit yesterday—the two line drives were his singles.
Next up, the pitches thrown to him broken down by pitch category. As you can see, he was thrown almost entirely fastballs. (13 fastballs, 1 offspeed)
