rodriguez filed a lawsuit against major league baseball and bud selig, saying, quote: >> frederick horowitz issued a gag order that seemed to be working, as rodriguez discovered, selig would not have to testify that day or any day. rodriguez stormed out. >> i lost my mine. i kicked a table and slammed a briefcase and went out of the room. i knew it was restricted, and i knew it wasn't fair, but what we saw today was disgusting. the fact that the man from milwaukee that put this suspension on me with not one bit of evidence, something that i didn't do, and he doesn't have the courage to come look at me in the eye and tell me this is why i did 211? i shouldn't serve one inning. >> with the arbitrators' ruling now in place, what is next for alex rodriguez? >> no that we have the opinion of the arbitrator, which he essentially split the desire of rodriguez and the baseball suspension, the arbitrator was trying to effect a decision that didn't appear that he was getting involved in the politics of these two parties. and i think that's something that will probably resolve this problem and get rid

>> well, first of all, the arbitrary frederick horowitz clearly he believed all the evidence that anthony bosch presented in the hearing, not just on 60 minutes, and alex rodriguez is challenging the validity of the suspension and those accusations by tony bosch. the interesting thing here is, alex rodriguez is going at this entirely alone, not just major league baseball in his lawsuit but the major league baseball players association for not doing a better job of defending him, so he is essentially saying, a ruling by horowitz is not just wrong but the arbitrary was impartial and my union didn't properly defend me. >> so what does this say about alex rodriguez and? i mean is it simply he has nothing to lose and therefore he will go down fighting to the last moment? >> i think -- >> rose: go ahead, tom. >> i was going to say i certainly think that is a part of it but you have to remember the resources that alex rodriguez has to his advantage. he has signed the two richest contracts in baseball history so this is not your ordinary player. this is someone who can, can withstand a very long
