What no one does, is something that the New York Yankees do. The Pinstripes right now are just one step away to enter the World Series 2022. They won their last World Series thirteen years ago, in 2009. It was not only the team’s last Championship but also their third baseman, Alex Rodriguez’s first World Series Win.

Months before the World Series actually started, A-Rod celebrated his 34th birthday, all while hyping up the team for Mission 27. The name Alex Rodriguez was famous not only in the baseball world, but also in Hollywood.

It is not baseball if it does not follow traditions, and one of the best baseball teams, the Yankees were not going to stay behind. A-Rod became the leader of his own party. By following up on a tradition usually followed by high schoolers and college-going students, the third baseman lived some events from movies in real life.

But when Alex did decide to do so, everybody followed suit. “[Rodriguez[ blew out his candles and ran and jumped in that pool,” former pitcher of the Yankees, AJ Burnett, said. “I looked at CC, CC looked at me, and we ran and jumped in. Then everybody runs and jumps in. It was wild. Phones, watches, everything on. It was just, ‘Oh, he did it. We’ve got to go.’”

The Yankees star was then dating the Hollywood star, Kate Hudson. The smashing pool party was thrown by her to celebrate the former baseball player’s birthday.
