Has anyone ever met Alex Rodriguez?

If you allow me a very broad definition of the word "met" then I met him during spring training last year.  Before the game after he finished warming up, he came over to a group of fans along the first base line.  He was very friendly and accomodating to everyone.  He signed autographs for half an hour and posed for pictures.

I am not friends with anyone famous nor do I know any celebrity in real life.\n\nHowever, I have met a couple by chance. I met Barry Switzer, former football coach, in the Dallas airport.

My husband and son met Tony Stewart and Kasey Kahne at Eldora speedway (the dirt track that Tony owns). They said they are both very nice and fun to talk to. I would LOVE to meet Tony. He is AWESOME!!

One name: Steve Dalkowski.  You could talk about him for five minutes or five hours, but he might be the most interesting baseball figure of all time, though he never made the majors.  He was a minor league phenom who played in the 1960s and was rumored to throw 110 mph.  Not surprisingly, he had massive control problems and just when he started to put it all together, he blew out his elbow.  There's a lot of stuff on the Internet about him, but there's one particularly good interview here:  http://www.widewordofsports.com/Articles-016.htm

My hero   - Jim Thome -   we sat next to the dugout at cleveland indians spring training game in 1996  -  he cracked his bat and gave it to us\n\nAddition\nReply to answerer regarding Jim Thome snubbing youth- wow -  well-  when Jim Thome walked off the field he had my husband (now ex) bring my youngest son (2 1/2 years old) over so he could hand it to him .  He had posed with a great big smile for a picture  for my other son - almost 6 at the time right before he batted -  and Manager Mike Hargrove chatted with me and gave me two baseballs for my sons  -  so all I saw was the fact that they were  extremely nice to kids.

I remember him. He used to play on the same team with Dale Murphy. He was a very good power hitter and a decent 3rd baseman.

Gosh, aside from "Starwoode", above, who appears to be a human with the intellect of a potato bug (how would you like meeting her, drunk?  Can you spell EZ?),\n\nI'd really like to meet King Abdullah, of Jordan.  Weird huh?\nWell, I would like to know this man, and be able to speak my own mind to him, thinking that he'd be listening to what I have to say, maybe.....\nEither King Abdullah, or Santa Claus.  With Santa, I'd bring up the Lexus 300 I wanted, but never got.  Watts up wid dat, man??\n\nand to you, Aaron... Scott Rolen?? good choice, there.  that gives me my chance to add my signature.....\n\nAint Baseball just the very best Game ever??

My friend's dad's friend is an agent for Jose Reyes and some other Mets' players. Maybe one of his clients is a friend of Wright.\n\ntinomart99@yahoo.com

By far. I think all of us are "Sal's pal's" He is simply a legend. His mullet is a work of art. His Mustache is nothing short of perfect. Can he hit over .200? NO. Can he throw anyone out at second? NO Do we care? NO He is a god among mortals. He also may become the first guy to win both MVP trophys in the same year. (he played in the NL and AL)

yes i do despise the red sox.  a rod is not my favorite yankee.  my reasoning behind this is because he did not come up a yankee.  he is a natural star. i feel that my favorite yankee is derek jeter. he has a lot of talent and was brought up in the yankee farm system.  i think to be a true yankee, you have to be brought up learning the ropes in the yankee farm system, anything less would consider you an accquisition in order to try to improve the team.  as we all know, the yankees do not have many farm players coming up and it is sad.  maybe if we rasied more talent, we could win our 27th.

Currently-----> Alex Rodriguez all the way!!! He has over 400 homers, and he is a really stong player. And, he plays good defense on 3B, and even though he swings at a lot of his pitches, that is what gave him all those homers!!!\n\nPast-----> Babe Ruth!!!
