Alex Rodriguez may be one of the few members of the exclusive 40/40 club, but he doesn’t like to show-off his speed after he jacks one into the bleachers.

According to David Biderman of the Wall Street Journal, Rodriguez has the slowest time of Yankees hitters to round the bases after a home run. He’s currently clocked at 24.9 seconds. Derek Jeter trots in with a brisk 20.2 seconds. You can see the Wall Street Journal graphic here:

It’s been awhile since I’ve done basic algebra, but I’ve calculated it to about 9.9 miles per hour. That isn’t too slow, but everything is relative.

Biderman adds that the average home-run time in the majors is 21.89 seconds according to Marquette University data coordinator Larry Granillo. For the New Yorkers, the Yankees are faster than the Mets by two-tenths of a second.

Thanks to Chris Chavez of Bleacher Report for the lead.
