Alexander the Great???(Blue-Jays/Yankees Recap)

I've seen a lot of magical things in my life
including Peyton actually winning a Superbowl,
people actually watching NHL games, and a person actually making the Statue of Liberty disappear. None of these of these come close to these magic that took place in Da Bronx on Thursday evening. Let me start by saying legends are not created but are born out of great moments of heroism and glory. With that being said I'll now get to A-ROD's A-mazing evening

AB:1. A-ROD approached the plate with his usual God-like demeanor after looking off three pedestrian balls and a strike, with the crack of his mighty bat (descended from the Heavens?) A-ROD singled to right(Amen). Any normal player would say this is enough for an inning but his Holiness wasn't done - he stole second*.WOW. Lifelong A-ROD faithful, Peter Martini was there in person and described it as "poetry in motion."
AB:2. In a stunning display of restraint A-ROD put on a show of warning track power in the 4th. This was an obvious move to lull the upcoming opponents, the Sox, into a false sense of security. Good Move, General Alex!
AB:3. Being funny is now a strong point of Alexander the Great, because apparently in the Bottom of the 6th A-ROD did his best Doug Mientkiewicz and grounded out to second. Hilarious Alex!!!!
Ab:4. Alex knew getting the fans hopes up would be ridiculous, so he grounded out to second in the bottom of the 9th. Way to Go!!!!!!A memorable way to end his night on an even more memorable evening.

*This tied of an MLB record of stealing one base on one play.

Quick Hitz

1. This was A-ROD's 1766th game
2. His hit gave him 2,098 only 902 till 3,000!!!!!
3. This was Alex's 20th straight game without highlighted hair(does that deserve a count)
4. This was Alex's 1766th game playing with all 10 fingers
5. This was the only time A-ROD will ever play a game on April 26th, 2007
6. This will probably be the last installment of Quick Hitz?
