Alex Rodriguez did not like watching Joey Gallo wear No. 13 in Yankees pinstripes
Former New York Yankees player Alex Rodriguez uses a cell phone following the MLB All-Star baseball game between the National League and National League, Tuesday, July 19, 2022, in Los Angeles. The American League won 3-2. It was the first time since Rodriguez retired in 2016 that another player suited up in his No. 13 in Yankees pinstripes. And to make matters worse, Gallo was a bust. He hit .159 with 194 strikeouts and 25 home runs in 140 games with the Yankees.
The three-time MVP and 14-time All-Star spent 22 seasons in the MLB and was with the Yankees from 2004-2016. Now a TV analyst with FOX, Rodriguez also opened up about why he believes his number should be retired at Monument Park. “I’m too critical to the Yankees, and that doesn’t help my case,” he told WFAN. “But I get paid to tell the truth…I want my number retired. If it’s not retired, so be it.
“Yeah, of course it bothers me. It’s less about bother, but of course it would be nice to be recognized in one of the coolest places to be in Yankee history, but that’s not my decision.”- Hal Steinbrenner preparing to address Yankees fans: Will he bring the heat? | Klapisch Thank you for relying on us to provide the journalism you can trust.
