3B Alex Rodriguez, NYY was
only 1-for-4 but that one hit was his 600th career home run (
video). Rodriguez is the seventh player to hit 600 or more home runs in a career and the youngest ever to reach that milestone number. His admission to using steroids undoubtedly takes some of the shine off this accomplishment and will taint his pursuit of 714, 755, 762 and beyond.
As a Yankee fan and baseball fan, I sadly choose to celebrate this milestone through the filtered reality of the unfortunate "Steroid Era". I wish you were better than that, AROD.
