MLB icon Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez once played for the elite New York Yankees. An association that transformed him from a baseball great to a celebrity sportsperson. His star value further witnessed a massive hike, after dating pop music megastar Jennifer Lopez. For people of Rodriguez’s popularity, it’s often difficult to get beyond heartbreaking memories because of their immense publicity.

‘A-Rod’ played MLB for the Seattle Mariners at the beginning of his career, followed by the Texas Rangers. But he later spent a major chunk of his career playing for the Yankees. The 14-time All-Star ‘A-Rod’ even got the sweet taste of a World Series victory in a Yankees’ jersey. More than anything, there is probably no MLB team with a bigger global outreach than the Yankees.?

However, there is one team that gives cut-throat competition to the Yankees, in almost every aspect of the sport. That is none other than the Yankees’ arch-rivals, the Boston Red Sox. Interestingly, Rodriguez’s ex-fiancee Lopez has got close ties with a famously devoted Red Sox fan. He is Lopez’s old flame and now-husband, Ben Affleck.
