Alex Rodriguez is one of the more unlikable faces in sports television, but for some reason, executives at both Fox Sports and ESPN keep thinking fans want to hear more from the former infielder.
He has a show during some of ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball broadcasts called KayRod Cast, where he and Yankees announcer, Michael Kay, offer a different look at the game being aired.
During Sunday night’s Mets-Red Sox game, Rodriguez was giving a hitting tip on ESPN2 when he came up with a very odd line about “punching a little person” to help him get his point across.
