Eye on the, Ball?

You're Alex Rodriguez. One of, or at least you used to be, the best in the game. You're struggling. You're team is struggling and about to go down 2-0 in a playoff series. You're intense focus and competitive spirit is honed in on...two women in the crowd? Such is a report that came out the other day suggesting that A-Rod sent autographed baseballs to two women he had been talking to during the game asking for their phone number. Now I'm not suggesting that he's wrong in trying to get a woman's number, Lord knows if I would if I could, but is there not a time and a place? Shouldn't he have more important things on his mind? Also, he's Alex Rodriguez. He could go to any number of restaurants, bars or other locals to meet women. Why then and there? I mean, you have to admit the guys got, well, balls, but it doesn't exactly endear him to everyone, or at least doesn't show any kind of commitment to the team. Then again that's never been his MO, but still, a little effort would be nice.
