Fans of the Yankees cracked up on social media when they saw that Alex Rodriguez’s ‘ideal’ date night is just him and his girlfriend — Jaclyn Cordeiro — hanging out while watching the team play on a livestream.
On Monday, Cordeiro took to Instagram to show off her leather black dress on her Story, as she got all brushed up to enjoy her evening with the former MLB star.
However, the fitness guru later uploaded a snap of her man enjoying the Yankees’ series against the Washington Nationals on a dock, presumably not too far away from New York City, while enjoying the sunset together.
‘You gotta respect A-Rod’s idea of a date night,’ Talkin’ Yankees – a fan account of the team – shared in reaction to Cordeiro’s Instagram Story on X.
‘date night but it’s just us sitting on a dock watching the yankees game on an ipad,’ another person pointed out, assumingly unimpressed by A-Rod’s plans to treating his girlfriend out on Monday.

Some users on X poked fun at the former Yankees slugger while others were unimpressed
‘No chance this gal is psyched about the outcome,’ someone else said.
‘He just like me FR,’ a different user joked.
‘Please… He’s so desperate to be like by the Yankees because we won’t retire his number,’ a fan of the Pinstripes noted.
A-Rod, who’s been dating Cordeiro since 2022, had two stints on the Yankees, first from 2004-2013, then from 2015-2016. He was named AL MVP in 2005 and 2007 and won a World Series with the team in 2009.
A-Rod opted out of his contract after the 2007 season, then signed a new 10-year, $275million deal with the Yankees, breaking his own record for the sport’s most lucrative contract.

He became the youngest player to hit 500 home runs, reaching the milestone in 2007. Two years later, A-Rod helped the Yanks’ overcome the Philadelphia Phillies in their World Series quest.
Toward the end of his career, he was hampered by hip and knee injuries, which caused him to become exclusively a designated hitter.
A-Rod – a shortstop who played third baseman on the Yankees to accommodate Derek Jeter in his natural position – played his final MLB game on August 12, 2016.
He is now a part owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves, of the NBA, and has two children from a previous marriage but none with Cordeiro.
