Twitter Recap: Bosch's appearance on 60 Minutes

1/13/2014

In case you didn't watch CBS last night, basically what happened was a guy by the name of Anthony Bosch appeared to the public for the first time. Bosch had treated Alex Rodriguez with four banned substances, PEDs. It was all revealed to the public for the first time. (You can view the segment here)

Alex Rodriguez was bashed by players, writers, and fans throughout the game and on many different teams. One way they could all connect was through Twitter, a social media site dedicated to delivering short bits of information (in only 140 characters) to the world. I have compiled a list of tweets that were sent during last night's action, and those people had a lot to say. 

My feed:

Bosch: I get paid $12,000 a month. #ARod

Bosch: Alex Rodriguez is afraid of injections. I've injected him myself.

Bosch: Everyone is on steroids...that guy who throws 95 mph is doping, that guy catching is on a program. Clean players would be outraged.

Selig: In my judgement, his actions were beyond comprehension.

Bosch: A-Rod associates told him to go to Columbia and wait there for this to "blow over." Says A-Rod was in charge of associates.

A-Rod lawyer basically says that MLB has been campaigning to get A-Rod out of the game. Never took steroids.

Bosch received death threats through text messages in Spanish.

Forgot to add that Bosch has been doing this for 10+ years.

60 minutes on Arod sounds like a Reality show. Sounds like everybody on that show was a lil shady. #breachofJDagreement #notright

Fan Reactions: 

@CoverThoseBases @AROD may be the worst thing to happen to baseball since the Joe Jackson incident.He stole from everyone.

— Patrick J McCauley (@McCauleyPJ) January 13, 2014

@CoverThoseBases That last part is ridiculous. I'd get him out of the game at all costs too if it makes the game cleaner

— Aaron Crocker (@otherbeard2fear) January 13, 2014

@CoverThoseBases Exactly, we don't know how much of this we can take for the truth. And I hate A-rod.

— Aaron Crocker (@otherbeard2fear) January 13, 2014

@CoverThoseBases I'm not sure there a g rated opinion on A Rod, if people still or think he is getting the shaft don't get it
