Video: Revisit Yankees Legend Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez’s Viral Blooper-Worthy Accident in the ESPN Broadcasting Booth

Once again, the Yankees legend Alex Rodriguez went viral. But this time, it was no controversy, no news of him breaking a record. It was because of a silly mistake that made him go viral.

A-Rod got called to call games past the offseason by ESPN in 2018. During the broadcast of Dodgers-Giants, an awkward incident happened that made A-Rod go viral again. And it happened not much after the game started. Watching the great athlete struggle at such a small thing was tough, and his reactions were pretty amusing and confused as well.

What made Alex Rodriguez confused?

In the Sunday Night Baseball Booth, the former baseball player tried to open a water bottle. However, from the confused expressions of A-Rod, it looked like a pretty tough task to do.

But somehow, he managed to open the bottle abruptly, making the water splash everywhere around him. Some of it fell over on Jessica Mendoza, and she definitely did not like it.

Rodriguez did not take a long time to get viral after this. Also, it can be said that the video is blooper worthy.

Nonetheless, it became a moment that even when A-Rod would look back on it, would find it funny too.

How was Rodriguez at calling games?

Apart from the viral moment that surrounded A-Rod, it was worth becoming a part of him talking about the game.

He is one of the greatest baseball players in the history of the Major Leagues. Having over 3000 hits, and 300 stolen bases, he became an all-star player fourteen times out of the twenty-two seasons that he played in his career. Other than this, he also won the AL MVP award three times with 10 Silver Sluggers by his side and many others.
