Alex Rodriguez

Alex Rodriguez is a renowned American former professional baseball shortstop and third baseman, acclaimed businessman, and dedicated philanthropist. With a stellar 22-season career in Major League Baseball (MLB), Rodriguez played for the Seattle Mariners (1994–2000), Texas Rangers (2001–2003), and New York Yankees (2004–2013, 2015–2016). One of the sport’s most highly touted players, he is celebrated as one of the greatest in baseball history. His remarkable career includes a .295 batting average, 696 home runs, over 2,000 runs batted in (RBIs), 2,000 runs scored, 3,000 hits, and over 300 stolen bases—the only player to achieve all these milestones.

Rodriguez was a 14-time All-Star, a three-time American League Most Valuable Player (MVP), and a record holder for grand slams. He also secured 10 Silver Slugger Awards and two Gold Glove Awards, and twice broke the record for the largest sports contract ever signed.

After retiring from baseball, Rodriguez transitioned into a successful media career. He became a broadcaster for Fox Sports 1, joined ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball team, and appeared on Shark Tank and ABC News. In 2021, he collaborated with Hims to launch a men’s cosmetics line.

A committed philanthropist, Rodriguez, alongside his ex-partner Jennifer Lopez, donated meals to students and hospitality workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. He also serves on the Paley Center for Media’s board of trustees. As the chairman and CEO of A-Rod Corp and the chairman of Presidente beer, Rodriguez continues to make a significant impact both on and off the field.
