Alex Rodriguez Responds to an Angry MLB Fan’s Brutal Insult With a Classic Smile Amid Postseason 2022 Commitments

Over the years, Yankees’ third baseman Alex Rodriguez has been a target of people booing him for multiple reasons. Be it because of his being complicit in the PEDs case, or because of other reasons, people have been calling him out.

But the man has now grown accustomed to it. No matter the reaction people give him, he does not react in the same way. Intentionally or not, Rodriguez has given multiple reasons for the public not to like him. He has made mistakes in the past and has paid for them as well. The former baseball player might not be getting inducted into the Hall of Fame because of his PEDs usage, despite him putting in the required numbers for the same.

In a recent clip on Twitter, a fan can be seen screaming at Rodriguez when he was leaving a ballpark with his friend David Big Papi Ortiz.

What did the person say about Alex Rodriguez?

Alex Rodriguez as he headed out with Ortiz behind him, waved towards the fans. During that moment, one such baseball fan hissed at him. While David looked rather shocked at the fan’s words, A-Rod’s reaction to it was rather happy, as if he was thanking the person for his kind words.

The fan said, “Alex Rodriguez you stink, and I don’t like you.” Then the man proceeded to say, “Big Papi, I like you though.”

DIVE DEEPER

A-rod gave a very subtle reaction, he gave a big smile, joined his hands, and left the Stadium. Rodriguez could have chosen to react harshly to the words said to him, but he decided to act in the opposite way possible. He made things easier not only for him but also for the fan who was booing him.

What are the reasons behind people not liking Alex?

First came Alex being the reason for his friendship getting bad with Jeter. Then, a couple of years later, in Mitchell’s report, his name came up with many who tested positive for taking performance-enhancing drugs. Things became even stiff for him after his name was on the list because he previously said in interviews that he has never taken steroids of any kind.
