That's what I like about A Rod. He's such a dork. He looks like a model but is secretly a spaz. Jeter is just too cool for school. Jeter is a cat. Unruffled. A Rod is a dopey dog.

I like that Jeter played it cool and was out; A-Rod panicked and was safe. [6] You’re right. I like that Jeter played it cool and was out; A-Rod panicked and was safe.

At the very end of the play, Jeter stepped off second allowing Arod a place to be. [4] In Arod’s defense, he didn’t have a base to go to with Jeter standing on second, and Cano running to first.

On SportsCenter they used that effect where they have a white line follow the course of action, usually for the flight of a ball or the path an outfielder takes. When A-Rod was done there was just a scribbly mess halfway between first and second. He had no clue what was going on, and the umpires weren't helping. The interesting thing about the play was that it highlighted the difference between Jeter and A-Rod. Jeter just stood there, knowing the ball had been caught. A-Rod ran around like a chicken with his head cut off. The fact that Jeter was out and A-Rod was safe makes it even better. [3] Definitely.

The title of the video is "Must See Jeter and Rodriguez" . At about 1:10 in the video there is a long shot with Arod in shadow. He must have reversed his running seven times between first and second base, finally pleading to the first base umpire for help before running to second, safe by an eyelash. A truly laugh out loud moment, and Arod and Jeter could barely contain themselves. Go to the MLB highlights video of the Cespedes dropped ball play.
