«You’d think he’d be pretty good around the bag, even scooping, because you get a lot of those hot shots around third base,» said Girardi, who wants to look at Rodriguez at first base again before spring training ends.
As for using him at his new position during the regular season, the manager added: «It’s not something that we’re looking to do, but if something happens to one of our other guys, I would feel comfortable throwing him out there.»
Rodriguez walked in the first against Scott Feldman and singled leading off the fourth. Expected to be primarily a designated hitter, A-Rod is hitting .324 (12 for 37) with seven walks, three home runs and four RBI.
