Jon Jones Meets Alex Rodriguez, Throws First Pitch

10

In what will surely add fuel to the fire for Jon Jones' haters, the light-heavyweight UFC champion attended the Toronto Blue Jays game last night (Wednesday, Sept. 18th, 2013) and amongst the baseball luminaries he met was one of the least liked figures in that sport: New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez. Two of the most polarizing figures in both sports? Sure would've liked to have been a fly on that wall. Jones described Rodriguez as "humble" and the conversation "really meant a lot to him". Jones also threw out the first pitch, and that's a near literal statement there. It's not hard to believe Jones when he says he was never any good at stick and ball sports.
