Moreover, Rodriguez has established himself as a part owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves of the National Basketball Association (NBA).

Despite controversies surrounding his admitted use of performance-enhancing drugs and involvement in the Biogenesis scandal, Rodriguez maintained his influence on the field.

In his personal life, he gained media attention for high-profile relationships, including his engagement to Jennifer Lopez. However, they ended their engagement in April 2021.

Alongside his commentary work, he has pursued business ventures and philanthropy, leaving a lasting impact in various areas.

Who Is Victor M Rodriguez?

Victor M Rodriguez is Alex’s half-brother. He was born to Victor Sr. and Pouppe Martinez. They were married for six years and had Victor Jr. in 1960.

While Alex pursued a successful baseball career, Victor chose a different path. Victor holds a bachelor’s degree in mathematics and industrial technology, as well as a master’s degree in human resource management.

Alex’s elder brother, Victor, is a decorated former officer in the Air Force. He retired as a Colonel after 28.5 years of service.

The two brothers had no opportunity to spend much time together as a child because Victor joined the Marines at 18.

Being in the military, Victor only got to know about his athlete brother every few years. The two brothers ran into each other while Victor was stationed in Abilene and Alex was playing for the Rangers.

Besides, Victor is married to Mona Rodriguez and has four children.

Who Is Joe Dunand Sr?
