Mark Ellis delivered the winning single with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Dodgers a 3-2 victory over the Yankees on Tuesday night.
"That really surprised me, bothered me, and I felt like some of the people in the organization didn't believe my story, and it was time to get out of there," Martinez told Booger and Rich. "...It makes me feel terrible, that's the only reason that I'm speaking out."
It's been a lot to digest -- that's for sure. In question-and-answer form, here is a look at the issues and implications of Major League Baseball's possible suspension of New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez.
Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte has never finished a season with a losing record in his 17-year playing career.
To let Alex Rodriguez slide is to implicitly say that cheating is rewarded at the highest level of the sport. Major League Baseball must make an example of him.
Whenever Alex Rodriguez speaks, we listen, and his latest quote is guaranteed to dominate the headlines.
"If (A-Rod's team is) going to fight this thing like they claim they're going to," Madden told WFAN radio, "then it's going to get very ugly."
A-Rod may have to start serving a suspension as soon as it is announced rather than wait for a grievance to play out. And merely threatening that position might give MLB leverage to force a deal.
During the Yankees-Rays game this past Saturday, YES Network commentator and former Yankees and Mets pitcher David Cone may have let a swear word slip out while on the air.
Why the rush? The league apparently wants to give some players the option of serving a 50-game ban before the season ends, the New York Post reported. Just don't expect it for A-Rod.
There's always been this intangible quality about Jeter. You can't quite put your finger on it. It's hard to quantify what gives Jeter the supernatural ability not to feel pressure and rise whenever the Yankees desperately need a spark.
Jeter returned to the New York Yankees' lineup — again — with customary flair, making an immediate impact on a team desperate for power.
It's the nightmare scenario for Rodriguez: fight a lifetime suspension for his alleged role in MLB's latest PED scandal or accept a ban until the 2015 season, which could very well end his career.
Tino Martinez resigned as the Miami Marlins' hitting coach hours after complaints by players that he verbally abused them became public.
Alfonso Soriano lifted New York over the Tampa Bay Rays 6-5 on Sunday to avoid a three-game sweep.
