Stars Who Rounded the Bases of Love

Better Up!!!!!

In honor of Opening Day, here's a look at some famous women who fell head over heels for baseball players.Hottest MLB wives & girlfriends,Snapshots of Opening Day action.

• Adriana Lima

  She may have ended up with an NBA star, but supermodel Adriana Lima once dated Jeter, too. We wish they'd had a child if only to see the gorgeous pair of eyes it surely would have had.

• Alyssa Milano

  Jeter and Rodriguez haven't entirely cornered the market on celebrity girlfriends. Alyssa Milano is a huge fan of baseball ... and its players. She's dated Barry Zito, Carl Pavano and Brad Penny.

Cameron Diaz

By Abby Gardner

New York Yankee third baseman Alex Rodriguez has been a media fixture the past couple years — and we're not just talking ESPN. He's been with girlfriend Cameron Diaz for almost a year now.

• Halle Berry

  Halle Berry's first marriage to then Atlanta Brave David Justice seemed at first like a fairytale pairing. Unfortunately, the ending wasn't so happy.

Jessica Biel

At the time in 2006, sporty and low-key Jessica Biel seemed like a perfect match for the Yankee MVP Jeter.

Kate Hudson

Kate Hudson famously rooted for then-boyfriend A-Rod when he was last in the World Series. New Yorkers even held up signs thanking her at the victory parade, as Rodriguez had not performed so well in playoffs past.

• Madonna

  And before Kate, A-Rod very famously spent time with Madonna. (Are you sensing he's got a type?) The couple tried to keep a low profile, which is virtually impossible when you're one of these two people in Manhattan.

• Mariah Carey

  Jeter's first real foray into the gossip columns came via his relationship with pop diva Mariah Carey back in the late '90s. We never quite figured out how these two very different personalities came together.

• Marilyn Monroe

  Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio were the ultimate baseball/Hollywood couple. Dapper-meets-glamour in a way we'll likely never see again. The fact that Joltin' Joe had flowers delivered to his ex-wife's grave twice a week for two decades? Well, that just says it all.

• Mia Hamm

  Nomar!!!!!! Along with being the subject of one of our favorite old Jimmy Fallon/Rachel Dratch SNL sketches, Garciaparra is married to soccer star Mia Hamm. They've even got twin daughters, who we're guessing already have some serious athletic chops.

• Minka Kelly

  If A-Rod prefers blondes, it seems that his teammate Derek Jeter loves a brunette. Currently with Friday Night Lights actress Minka Kelly, Jeter has always been a little quieter about his famous lady friends. But he's definitely had his share!

• Misty May-Treanor

  Misty May is another Olympic star — in beach volleyball with partner Kerri Walsh — turned baseball wife after marrying catcher Matt Treanor in 2004. They even have "M2" tattoos to symbolize their partnership.

• Rihanna

  One of the hotter new pairings in sports/entertainment was Rihanna and Los Angeles Dodger Matt Kemp. The couple split in December after nearly one year of canoodling.

• Tawny Kitaen

  '80s heavy metal icon Tawny Kitaen married pitcher Chuck Finley back in 1997. It ended on a pretty sour note, but we like this image of the family at the ballpark during happier times.

• Vanessa Minnillo

  Before she hooked up with Nick Lachey, the former MTV VJ was spotted out and about in New York with the Yankees captain.
