Boston Red Sox Icon Dubs Alex Rodriguez as New York Yankees’ Only Hope to Beat the Houston Astros in a Hilarious Exchange

Alex Rodriguez, since the beginning of the 2022 postseason, has been making predictions. However, all his predictions, from the wild card series to the recently concluded Division Series, have incorrectly gone down the wrong drain.

And on all occasions, former Boston Red Sox World Champion baseman David Ortiz has made sure to let him know where he went wrong. It started with the wild-card round, where every prediction made by A-Rod, who’s deemed an analyst and expert, went wrong.

Papi roasts Alex Rodriguez; Again!

During the wildcard round, David Ortiz walked around the Fox Studio, pointing toward all the wrong predictions made by A-Rod and having a laugh.

Papi said, “The only way the Yankees can beat Houston is if you pick them. You have been wrong the whole time.”?However, the comment did not in any way deter A-Rod’s support for the Pinstripes. And he said, “Well, I’ve got my Pinstripes on.”?Following this, all the broadcasting members burst into laughter.

A-Rod and Big Papi’s relationship

While one would expect a Yankee and Red Sox player to perpetually fight like cats and dogs, that wasn’t the case for A-Rod and Big Papi. A-Rod reached the Yankees in 2004 and David Ortiz arrived at Fenway Park in 2003. Analogous to that, given their underlying franchise rivalry, the pair were fierce rivals on the field.

However, the minute they left the field, their rivalry subsided. To the extent that Ortiz would often travel to and from Fenway Park with the Yankee baseman, A-Rod.
