A-Rod’s wife did what?
Cynthia Rodriguez went to Yankee Stadium on Sunday to cheer on her husband and pull another brick from the wall of civilization. The New York Post reported that the wife of Yankee star Alex Rodriguez attended the New York-Oakland game, sitting in the players’ family section, wearing a white tank top with language so foul it would shame a sailor.
Classy. Really classy. A-Rod is a lightning rod, for his salary and his status, and sometimes I feel sorry for him, living in such a glass house. But there’s no excuse for a wife embarrassing her husband, his employer, New York City baseball fans and decent people everywhere.
Yankee policy prohibits fans from using foul language or making obscene gestures, but security guards did not make Ms. Rodriguez leave her seat. Big mistake. Civility counts even in the Bronx Zoo.
Counts even at rank Yankee Stadium. Alex Rodriguez suffered another blow to his image Sunday, courtesy of his coarse wife.
