Rodriguez breaks postseason HBP record

Alex Rodriguez got hit by a Joe Blanton pitch last night, bringing hit postseason total to 8. That's a new postseason record, passing David Eckstein's 7 career postseason hbps. Rodriguez is also just the 2nd player ever hit 3 times in a single World Series, joining Hall of Famer Max Carey who was hit 3 times for the Pirates in the 1925 World Series. (In terms of style points though, you'd have to give Max Carey the edge, just because he got hit twice by Walter Johnson).
