 Alex Rodriguez  Seattle residence? On an island. Fave raves: Web site -- Anything to do with sports. Reading -- Pat Riley's "The Winner Within." Movie -- "Wall Street." I enjoy the stock market and I'm a big Michael Douglas fan. Actress -- Demi Moore. Food -- Sushi and various kinds of pasta. Clubhouse fare -- Peanut butter and jelly. Seattle spot -- Downtown, by the water. First car: A 1986 Mazda 323 I got from my brother. First sports hero: Cal Ripken, of course. First break: Mr. Arteaga, father of J.D. Arteaga, a lefty in the Mets' system. He was the coach of the 12- to 13-year-old team who put me on the team at age 9. I played short and caught the pitchers who threw hard because I was the only one that could. If you didn't play baseball, what would you do? I'm fascinated by real estate, but no matter what kind of business I was in I'd still like to do something working with kids. Best part of baseball: Practice. Hardest part of baseball: I love everything in the game, around the game. I dislike the travel. First impression of Seattle: A quiet, soothing place. Interview by Bob Sherwin, The Seattle Times
