On April 22, Rodriguez crossed over the pitching mound, upsetting Braden. Braden was asked on Wednesday whether he and Rodriguez would have to "settle [things] with knuckles." "There's things that are going to have to happen," said Braden. "Out of respect to my teammates, out of respect to the game." Braden is 17-23 with a 4.62 ERA in 67 big-league games. Rodriguez was asked to comment about Braden: "There's two ways that I can comment on that, and I'll give you both of them. "One, I was always told if you give a fool enough rope, he'll hang himself, and with those comments, he had all the rope he needed. "Two, I didn't know that there was a criteria in order to compete against A-Rod. I didn't know that. For him to feel that someone needs to reach a certain level of success in order to be able to compete against him, I think he should probably check that." |
