NJ.com: Heavy rain threatens to wash out Alex Rodriguez’s last Yankees game

BOSTON — Rain could wash way Alex Rodriguez’s tears before they start.

The National Weather Service said scattered showers and thunderstorms could produce heavy rains all day Friday in the Bronx.

That means there’s a chance A-Rod’s last game with the Yankees could get washed out. They’re scheduled to face the Rays at 7:35 p.m. at Yankee Stadium.

Rodriguez said there’s been no talk of a contingency plan if the game gets rained out.

“No,” he said. “I’m sure there’s an excellent chance that it doesn’t rain, too. I’m going to keep optimistic all the way to the finish line.
