A-Rod Hits First HR In 11 Months 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Aug 11, 2013 9:30 pm

Alex Rodriguez hit a home run against the Detroit Tigers on Sunday afternoon, his first in 11 months.


Rodriguez, who has been booed at Yankee Stadium this weekend, was cheered following the home run.


The 38-year-old lofted a 1-0, 92 mph fastball from Justin Verlander into the left-field seats.


It was Rodriguez's 648th career homer; he's now just 12 homers shy of tying Willie Mays on the all-time list.


Tying Mays would bring a $6 million bonus.
