Notice that when Papi speaks, A Rod sits and listens. The utmost respect between these two men despite them once being a part of the biggest rivalry in the sport, is so beautiful to see. The fact that even in retirement, both are still learning from each other is incredible. The quest for knowledge never stops.

Papi is a Scorpio, same birthday as my Grandma. Water sign- Full of emotion, love, passion. This is why he was telling A-Rod to exhale. A-Rod, being a Leo so much more intense and highly driven. A Scorpio approaches their goals with passion, but not as rigid. I truly love this friendship. I enjoy them as analysts together. Papi was to Yankee fans what Jeter was to Red-Sox fans. No disrespect to A-Rod, but Jeter was there long before, hence that comparison. It’s a great thing for the world to see “rivals” respecting and admiring one another. They’re baseball bros/pros/legends. 🏆⚾️🏆 Cheers, gentlemen ✨🥂✨☮️💟
