The Yankees play a three-game series against the arch rival Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park beginning on Tuesday. Three years later, Rodriguez signed with the Yankees for $275 million over 10 years, setting another record for the most lucrative deal in pro sports history. In 2004, the Yankees acquired Rodriguez in exchange for second baseman Alfonso Soriano and a player to be named. It’s unclear if Rodriguez will play in that series, but he said management has assured him he will get at least a few at-bats on Friday. In 2007, when he won his final MVP award, Rodriguez amassed 54 home runs, 156 RBI and 143 runs, leading the league in each category.
