AROD to TIE IT
TEX to WIN IT
2-0 LEAD
GAME 3 SUNDAY
WOW, what a game. Anyone still hating on A-Rod? He can't hit in the clutch. Ummm well we are only 2 games in but how about those people shut their traps for a while. 3 Huge hits, and by huge i mean GIGANTIC. Tonights 9th inning game tieing homerun might of been one of the best ive ever seen in my life. Of course their are some World Series bombs ahead of it but still. A-Rod this season has taken a page from a guy like Curtis Martin. Just show up, stay out of trouble, dont cause trouble, play the game and let your numbers do the talking. Martin isn't considered one of the best running backs of all time even though he is 4th in yardage simply because he was a quite player with no flash or pizzazz at all. He just would show up and play, and it seems that Rodriguez is doing that this year. He seems more relaxed and pressure free something that hasn't occured since he became a Yankee. Having Mark Texiera doesn't hurt either. Tex is a guy who can help "relieve" some of this pressure but it seems that A-Rod is just different all together. Its no secret that A-Rod hasn't been good in the post season. Ohh did i say that? I meant hes sucked. I was at that 2007 ALDS game 4 when he hit that meaningless homerun, and I thought big whoop. But through 2 games Rodriguez is batting .500 with 5 RBI. If you ask me thats pretty nice. Maybe going through that divorce, being caught and having surgery really humbled him and put his mind at ease. It also seems that it refocused him. And that my friends is good for all of us. Oh and by the way, call him out on his chokes now.
