Earlier today, we told you about Fox hiring Alex Rodriguez for the rest of the MLB Postseason. Fox unveiled Rodriguez’s hiring on Fox NFL Sunday bringing him to the set with Curt Menefee calling him one of the most popular figures in sports, and having him talk baseball and his experiences in playing high school football.
So you think it would only natural to have A-Rod throw a pass across the set. However, instead of bringing former wide receiver Randy Moss over from the Fox NFL Kickoff set, it was decided to have the diminutive Jay Glazer attempt to catch the pass. The key word here is attempt.
You can see this would not go well.
If you didn’t see the entire segment, see it below:
Looks like some money is coming out of Rodriguez’s paycheck.
