Alex Rodriguez’s memorable day as a baseball coach

A pretty common feature in the sporting realm is of former players becoming coaches and managers. Baseball has also seen a fair share of players becoming coaches and guiding others to success. Whether that will be the case with Alex Rodriguez remains to be seen, he though sure can pull it off.

Taking part in a fun activity with his then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez’ close friend Kim Kardashian, A-Rod had a memorable day at the field. He was seen helping the family get their swing while sharing several snapshots on his social media.

The former baseball star would later upload several pictures on his Instagram stories. One story featured a photo of him along with Kris Jenner.

Obviously, when it comes to hitting the baseball, there are very few who can say they are better at that than A-Rod. In this career, the former MLB star hit 696 home runs with over 3,000 hits. However, his usage of performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) has left a black mark on his career.

He is now once again nominated for the 2024 Baseball Hall of Fame. Whether he will be forgiven by his peers and get the necessary 75 percent of the vote to reach Cooperstown remains to be seen.
