Don't let the competitiveness and on-field rivalry fool you, these Dominican players always hang out together off the field. The game being an entertainment business, they have a role to play and a contract to fulfil. It is nice to see Arod finally free of the "Yankee" chain and be a true "jibaro" lol

[@perryegolson833]

This video is an example of real sportsmanship. They have just mad respect for each others talent and work ethics because both of these two know what it takes to be a star at the major league level. I know these guys have made mistakes that they can never take back, especially A-Rod. But I admire the way he has actually made significant efforts to change who he is .And he was always my favorite player to watch through it all. I give him credit for having some self awareness and humility at this point in his life. Also big Yankees fan here. A-Rod had the prettiest right handed swing I think I’ve ever seen. I try to copy it myself.

Thank you for the true masterclass, Arod and David. I wish I had a fraction of your expertise in order to hound you until I got an interview with you like this. I can only imagine the gems of insight you have to share from your own craftsmanship. All I can think back to is that Village Voice cover where a cartoon illustration of you (as unfair a reflection of your grace on the field as it may have been) hauling a giant baseball on your back-it was a failing sport you carried back to life. There’s never been a talent like you on the field. The ones who know, know that. Nobody’s had the kind of pressure upon them that you did. I hope to shake your hand someday.
