Alex Rodriguez posted a pool picture, so a former teammate responded with #BaeRod

During the summer, Alex Rodriguez hit a grand slam and the Yankees Twitter account responded by introducing the #BaeRod hastag to the world. At first, it didn’t really seem like the nickname had stuck other than Michael Kay trying to explain what BAE meant.

Then Phil Hughes, Rodriguez’s former Yankees teammate, brought it back to life.

Rodriguez tweeted a picture of him working out in a pool and Hughes responded perfectly.

#BaeRod should never be used as a serious thing. But, #BaeRod should always be used for jokes. Well done, Phil.
