A-Rod Has A Friend In Technology

For the first time in major league history, instant replay was used on Wednesday night. In the 9th inning of the Yankees-Rays game at Tropicana Field, A-Rod launched a high homerun over the top of the foul pole, that hit one of numerous catwalks at the Trop (how this is a major league stadium I don't know). The play was reviewed, and the homerun was upheld. From the replays shown on ESPN, it wasn't conclusive. But, even technology can't stop A-Rod from hitting another meaningless homerun (up 6-3 in the 9th).

A-Rod-You may not have your teammates or your fans, but you have a friend in technology. I can see how you'd get along--you both lack heart.
