A-Rod among players cacing drug allegations

Major League Baseball is probing a newspaper report that alleges doping by New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez as recently as last season.

All-Stars Gio Gonzalez and Nelson Cruz also were among players linked to performance-enhancing drug use in Tuesday's report by the Miami New Times.

The report is based on records provided by an employee who worked at Biogenesis, a Miami anti-aging clinic that closed last month, according to the newspaper. The records include notebooks of the clinic's head, Anthony Bosch, and cite usage and payment details of players including Rodriguez, Gonzalez, Cruz, Melky Cabrera, Bartolo Colon, other professional athletes and a strength coach at the University of Miami.
