Alex Rodriguez, third baseman for the Yankees, may be off to "the hottest start in baseball history," according to one New York Times article. As of April 22, Rodriguez has hit 12 home runs this season (more than the totals of eight teams), and he is two shy of breaking Albert Pujols's April record.
The secret to A-Rod's rediscovered success--for those familiar with his bootless postseason, which had him eighth on the batting list and booed on a regular basis--is Kevin Long. Long, who previously played and coached minor league baseball, replaced former MVP Don Mattingly as the the Yankee's hitting coach. Though his credentials are humble, Long is quickly proving that the right coach is sometimes all you need to get on the right track.
This might work as an illustration on Christ's guidance, or even the power of mentoring or discipleship.
