Known for his playing years in the Bronx, Alex Rodriguez never shies away from gushing about the championship-winning year in 2o09. Although it has been 14 years since the New York Yankees won the World Series, whenever getting the chance, A-Rod always goes down memory lane.

Recently, the Yankees legend sat down for a podcast and recalled the championship year with the Yanks. Notably, the 2009 silverware was not only special for A-Rod, but also for the Yankees, who ended their 9-year title drought. Talking about the championship year, A-Rod opened up in detail that it was not very easy for him to lead the Yanks to the prestigious title.
