In town playing Detroit, injured New York Yankees 3B Alex Rodriguez toured Michigan’s new basketball Player Development Center on Wednesday. Not exactly sure of the connection, but here’s something we’re pretty confident about: Yankee teammate and Ohio State product Nick Swisher was nowhere near Ann Arbor and will have some choice words for the three-time AL MVP. See Michigan Basketball’s Facebook page’s picture of Rodriguez with the basketball staff in this post.

A-Rod ran into a very popular former Wolverine during his tour:
Just met A Rod in the PDC after my workout. He's a real nice guy. I told him not to beat up on my White Sox. http://t.co/pu5DhIc5—

And no trip to Ann Arbor is complete without a visit to Zingerman’s.
