Perhaps the best indication of the grandiosity of Alex Rodriguez's first-month
power display came in the two weeks that elapsed between his home runs - and
the sizable distance by which he is still lapping the field in the American
League.
A-Rod belted his ML-leading 15th homer of the season, but first in 47 at-bats
since April 23, in the Yankees' 8-1 victory last night over Texas.
All that April power finally brought a towering May blast.
"That was big. He hadn't hit one in awhile," Joe Torre said after the Yanks
finally provided enough run support for Andy Pettitte to earn his second
victory of the season. "Alex got a couple of base hits hitting the ball hard
straightaway. That's really the key, having him stay in there. That's where he
was going all last month."
Rodriguez, who also leads the majors with 39 RBI, belted 14 homers in April to
tie the record for the season-opening month, equalling the number Albert
Pujols achieved last season. But A-Rod had gone 12 games without going deep
since his two-homer game in a 10-8 loss April 23 in Tampa, until he clocked
Mike Wood's 0-1 pitch for a two-run shot to right-center in the fifth inning
last night to extend the Yankees' lead to 6-1.
"I've been about six inches off, reaching a little bit, but I was a little more
patient tonight and let the ball travel a little more," said Rodriguez, who
also singled, walked and was hit by a pitch in five plate appearances. "This
season's six months. People get caught up too much in one month up or one
month down."
Still, Rodriguez had batted a soft .267 (12-for-45) with all three RBI during
his 12-game drought coming in one game - the Yanks' 15-11 loss last Friday
against Seattle.
Even with that factored in, Rodriguez has averaged one homer every 8.2 at-bats
this season (15 in 123 trips).
By comparison, the other eight starters in last night's lineup for the Yankees
- all regulars - have combined for 19 homers this season, led by Jason
Giambi's five.
