Alex Rodriguez of New York Yankees reportedly claiming Tony Bosch duped him
Alex Rodriguez reportedly is arguing in his grievance to overturn his 211-game suspension that he believed the substances he received from Biogenesis of America were legal supplements.
The New York Daily News reported the nature of the New York Yankees third baseman's testimony, citing a source with knowledge of the hearings.
Rodriguez's stance is contrary to that of Biogenesis founder Tony Bosch, who is cooperating with Major League Baseball. Bosch has confirmed the authenticity of his correspondence with Rodriguez and documents from his now-closed anti-aging clinic in Coral Gables, Fla., the newspaper reported.
Rodriguez's attorneys are expected to cross-examine Bosch on Wednesday and are likely to attack his credibility. The Daily News reported that attorneys are expected to argue that Bosch was reportedly paid by MLB for evidence collected in its investigation and told that he would be dropped from a lawsuit if he cooperated.
