CCL Countdown- Alex Rodriguez

CAW Champions League countdown video for Alex Rodriguez Alex Rodriguez From: New York City Height: 6'3" Weight: 228 lbs. Alexander Emmanuel Rodriguez an American professional baseball player of Dominican parentage. Nicknamed "Alex" or "A-Rod," he currently plays third base for the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball. He previously played shortstop for the Seattle Mariners and the Texas Rangers. Rodriguez is considered one of the best allaround baseball players of all time. He is the youngest player ever to hit 500 home runs, breaking the record Jimmie Foxx set in 1939. In December 2007, Rodriguez and the Yankees agreed to a 10-year, $275 million contract. This contract was the richest contract in baseball history (breaking his previous record of $252 million). Hoping to follow the footsteps of fellow New York Yankees Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera, this modern-day slugger hopes to attain championship gold in the squared circle as he had this past season on the baseball diamond.
