A-Rod Hits 600th Home Run – What’s the Big Deal?

A-Rod Hits 600th Home Run - What's the Big Deal?

On Wednesday, Alex Rodriguez, or “Al”, as Joe Girardi referred to him, skipped Yankees team photo day and went on to hit his 600th career home run off Shaun Marcum, the only active Major League Baseball player that spells his first name the same way that I do.

While that sounds impressive, if you look at the numbers a little more closely, you’ll see that Major League Wiffleball Home Run King Mike Breen is a much better home run hitter than A-Rod.

A-Rod homers on average every 14.5 at bats, which is disappointing in comparison to Mike Breen who averaged one home run every 5.28 at bats throughout his career.
