Some lessons in life don’t come with a do-over—especially when they involve a 700-horsepower machine screaming around a track. When a certain MLB legend decided to test his limits at the IndyCar opener, he quickly learned that baseball and blistering speed don’t mix. What started as a thrill ride, ended with a masterclass in regret, delivered at 200 mph.

Alex Rodriguez is known for his baseball talent. But now he is showing his talent off the field and in a racing car. And not just any race car, it was an Indy race car opener. For a person who spent most of his life in the batter box, this box might be a little cramped up and a little too fast. And more than the sounds of the revving cars, it was the sound of A-Rod screaming “Oh my god.”
Speed thrills, but it also humbles—especially when you’re more familiar with rounding bases than hairpin turns. A-Rod may have conquered the diamond, but the track had the final say. Next time, he might want to stick to fastballs instead of fast lanes.
