when it comes to disciplinary measures and i am looking at his own history not speculation, has been fairly spotty. there have been a number of decisions made by the league office that had been subsequently overturned. i really don't know what to expect, because the decision making i would describe as fern netic at best. >> heyee also calls the report a sad day for the nfl. >> alex rodriguez is one step closer to history. >> fly ball deep left center. there it goes. see ya. home run number 661. >> 661, see ya. now passing willie mays to move into fourth place in the all time home run list. he has a ways to go if he wants the all time record.
