Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.
Home run #492 of Alex Rodriguez's career is special because of three things: 1. It ties a game they need. 2. He gets a big hand from a Yankee fan-filled ballpark, a bigger hand than he probably got all 2006 at the Stadium. And 3. He's the most-clutch player in baseball this year.
Thom Brennamen just said A-Rod has seven HR in 20 at-bats in 9th-inning situations. Not bad, right?
His approach at the plate is solid, he seems to be reacting instead of thinking, and pitchers keep giving him fat pitches. Astounding.
Maybe you don't expect him to hit these type of home runs, but if you're still surprised, you haven't been watching closely enough.
