SHOCKER: The Red Sox will not hold a farewell ceremony for A-Rod

A-Rod Varitek

The Yankees play the Red Sox in a three-game series at Fenway Park beginning tonight. These will be Alex Rodriguez’s final three games at the home of his team’s bitter rival before his retirement this Friday.

You will be shocked to learn that the Red Sox do not plan to do anything special for A-Rod to mark the occasion. From Rob Bradford at WEEI, who offers this news like the driest martini, served at noon in the Sahara Desert:

According to a team source, the Red Sox are not planning to honor Alex Rodriguez when the Yankees designated hitter begins his final series at Fenway Park Tuesday night.

In other news, PETA is not planning to honor Joe’s Kansas City BBQ, Batman is not planning to honor the Joker and house cats are not planning to honor vacuum cleaners.
