ESPN host: Jeter ‘beside himself angry’ over interview with A-Rod

Remember that awkward interview Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez had with CNBC’s Bob Pisani while promoting a charity event last week?

Well, according to ESPN radio host Dan Le Batard, Jeter wasn’t happy he had to share the same space with A-Rod, whom he has had a notoriously rocky relationship with for years.

“I actually learned, factually, that Jeter was beside himself angry at that interview he had to do with Alex Rodriguez, first and foremost, because nobody told him he’d have to be sitting there next to Alex Rodriguez,” LeBatard said on his radio program.

If that was the case, it still seemed Jeter was able to work with Rodriguez in trying to stop Pisani from asking questions they didn’t want to answer, including a query about the status of their personal relationship toward each other.
