A-Rod: ‘Made an ass of myself’ in infamous Francesa interview

Remember Alex Rodriguez’s infamous radio interview with Mike Francesca in 2013, at the height of the Biogenesis scandal and his legal war with MLB?

So does A-Rod, and he now admits the slugger who stormed out of an arbitration hearing and into the WFAN studio — he spent 40 minutes in front of a microphone denying performance-enhancing drug use and blasting the “man from Milwaukee” aka Bud Selig — was a “big jerk.”

“I think just being a big jerk, you know. … I was really just a big jerk,” Rodriguez said about his various transgressions at a luncheon Thursday with University of Miami students, according to CBS Miami.
