{Yankees desperate enough to rally around A-Rod}
Ken Davidoff Follow Ken on Twitter Blog: Baseball Insider BOSTON — Now, about that theory Alex Rodriguez was going to divide and destroy the Yankees’ clubhouse because of his extracurricular battles?Hey, these Yankees are desperate enough to rally around just about anyone.And so it was last night that A-Rod delivered first the lightning and then the thunder to arguably his team’s biggest win of the season, 9-6 over the Red Sox at Fenway Park.A known target because he’s appealing his 211-game suspension for illegal performance-enhancing drugs — a reality that has upset many players from the Red Sox and other teams — A-Rod got hit by a Ryan Dempster fastball in the second inning, the fourth straight inside pitch in the at-bat. That episode got manager Joe Girardi ejected by home-plate umpire Brian O’Nora,Michael Kors Purses, which meant Girardi was in his clubhouse office when A-Rod crushed a sixth-inning home run to centerfield, career number 649, igniting a four-run rally that made the difference.

A-Rod got his revenge in the sixth when he got to celebrate a solo shot off Dempster (right). “It was awesome,Michael Kors Purses,michael kors canada,” A-Rod said. “I was pretty excited. It was the ultimate payback.”BRONX ZOO IS AGAIN OPEN FOR BUSINESSPHOTOS: POST COVERS A-ROD THROUGH THE YEARSSaid winning pitcher CC Sabathia: “I think Alex did the best retaliation by going deep. There’s not much more to say. A guy drills you, then you go deep off of him, he gives up seven,Michael Kors Outlet, we get the win. That’s all you can say.”The Yankees have won three straight series now in their attempt at a miracle playoff run, and this one, over the American League East-leading Red Sox, was the most important. The players showed, with their reaction to the Rodriguez-Dempster skirmish, that they had all of their teammates’ backs, even a teammate who is spending much of his time engaging in verbal warfare with Yankees superiors.Boston’s Dempster, meanwhile, showed himself only to be a thuggish clown. Girardi ripped thoroughly and deservedly into the right-hander for blatantly trying to drill A-Rod before succeeding on the fourth pitch.“I don’t think that’s up to him to determine, (to) throw at a guy because he’s going through what he’s going through,Michael Kors Outlet,” Sabathia said of Dempster. “Maybe it was something different. But I don’t think it’s up to Dempster to police that.”This episode of “Life with Alex” provided a particularly ugly lesson: The more you make A-Rod’s situation personal, the quicker you’ll sink well beneath his reduced status.
