Good Ole A-Rod
Maybe it’s some last remnants of roid rage bubbling to the surface or maybe not. A-Rod confronted ESPN’s Rick Sutcliffe on some of Sutcliffe’s comments:
Upset with an accusation made by ESPN’s Rick Sutcliffe two weeks ago, the two players approached the former Cy Young winner to discuss the situation.
Sutcliffe said on the air that A-Rod had been feeding Teixeira verbal signs from the on-deck circle, giving his teammate a heads-up on the catcher’s location before the pitch was delivered. Teixeira and A-Rod pulled Sutcliffe aside when they saw him in the clubhouse last night, expressing their displeasure with his charges.
Just an observation on my part, and as much as I hate the Yankees, and especially the Yankees of the late 1990s, you never heard accusations like this about that group (until years later, of course, when it was confirmed that a significant number of those lat were doing steroids) doing this sort of bush league stuff.
But when it comes to A-Rod, I wouldn’t put it past him. Once a cheater, always a cheater.
