A-Rod was kicked out of a building for bringing back too many prostitutes

Have what it takes to be an MLB star?

Alex Rodriguez may never break the MLB home run record, but he could set baseball’s prostitute record -- at least according to one New York City apartment building.

Curbed New York explains A-Rod’s propensity for prostitutes, which was an unbroken streak that emulated some of the game’s best records.

A-Rod was known for his love of call girls, “usually two at a time, twice a week.” Since he lived there for two years (February of 2009 to February of 2011, give or take), at a rate of four prostitutes per week, that would mean that he brought roughly 416 prostitutes into an apartment that was on the market for $55 million.

Whoa. Rodriguez may end up with a batting average of .300, but he was clearly batting a thousand with New York’s sex workers.
