Before he hit more than 600 home runs . . .
Before he was named American League MVP . . .
Before he was AROD to hundreds of thousands of fans . . .
He was Alex.
Just a kid who wanted to play baseball more than anything else in the world.
Alex Rodriguez is the third baseman for the New York Yankees. Three times voted the American League Most Valuable Player, he was born in New York City, moved with his family to their native Dominican Republic when he was four, then moved to Miami with his family at the age of eight. The only person in baseball history to hit 400 home runs before his thirtieth birthday, he hit his first home run at the age of six. Drafted out of high school, he played for the Seattle Mariners and then the Texas Rangers before being signed by the Yankees. Alex lives in New York City and Miami, Florida.
