Sox Fans Can't Mask Hatred for A-Rod
Leave it to the boys from Beantown to try and stick it to Alex Rodriguez.
A couple of TMZ spies from Boston showed up to tonight's Red Sox/Yankees game with their sights set on mocking the slugger's marital woes. They'd made up a few heads-on-sticks to taunt him with. One version had Madonna -- whose special relationship with A-Rod was what finally pushed his wife Cynthia to file for divorce. The other was Lenny Kravitz, who is close friends with A-Rod's wife.
But alas, it wasn't to be -- Yankees security confiscated the masks and trashed them at the gate. It worked -- A-Rod homered and the Yanks won 5-4.
A-Rod's Wife -- Let's Play Ball in Court
Looks like the Madonna romance rumors finally sent Alex Rodriguez's wife on the offensive.
Cynthia Rodriguez has hired Houston lawyer Earle Lilly to finally end her rocky marriage with A-Rod, according to WABC in New York. Earle said Cynthia will file suit tomorrow morning in Dade County Fla. Family Court, and that A-Rod's "relationship with Madonna was the final straw for Mrs. Rodriguez."
