"When Alex Rodriguez launched a ball into the Bronx night to finish off the Yankees' 15-inning marathon against the Red Sox on Aug. 7, many believed the memorable moment would spark another hot streak for the Yankees third baseman."
I'm not sure who these "many" people are.
He hit a HR off a hanging curveball thrown by a minor leaguer.
All of a sudden, this one HR indicated a "new" ARod, accepted by his teammates and the fans. His soul was finally free and unburdened.
Yes, that HR was certainly memorable. ARod has four of five well-timed HRs this year which have diverted attention from the fact that it's his worst season ever.
Maybe on account of the hip. Probably on account of the hip.
But I'd prefer a miserable jerk who hit 50 HRs and batted .300.
