Alleged Affair between Alex Rodriguez and Madonna
Who's dating who? Guy Ritchie, Lenny Kravitz, Madonna and A-Rod keep us guessing
Divorce from Cynthia (1st wife)
The marriage was irretrievably broken because of extramarital affairs and other marital misconduct.
On Monday, July 7, 2008, Cynthia Rodriguez filed for divorce.You can see the complete filing on The Smoking Gun.
"The petitioner has exhausted every effort to salvage the marriage of the parties," Cynthia Rodriguez said in the filing. "However, Alex has emotionally abandoned his wife and children and has left her with no choice but to divorce him."
Cynthia Rodriguez's lawyer, Maurice Kutner, declined to elaborate on the filing, which does not mention Madonna or any other alleged paramours by name.
"Cynthia has made it very clear to me that she wants to take the high road and protect her children and herself. There's no vindictiveness here," Kutner said. "She wants to resolve the issues between Alex and herself in an amicable fashion."
They have 2 children, daughters Natasha Alexander, 3, and 2-month-old Ella Alexander.
Cynthia filed for divorce just days after A-Rod was linked to Madonna in the tabloids. Cynthia is visiting the Paris home of rocker Lenny Kravitz, who said she came to France to get away from all the hoopla.

New York Yankees history
The New York Yankees are a professional baseball team based in the borough of the Bronx, in New York City, New York and are a member of Major League Baseball's American League East Division. One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Baltimore, Maryland in as the Baltimore Orioles, and moved to New York City in , becoming known as the New York Highlanders before being officially renamed the "Yankees" in . From to , the Yankees' home ballpark was Yankee Stadium, one of the world's most famous sports venues. In 2009, they moved into a new stadium, also called "Yankee Stadium".
The franchise is the defending World Champion of Major League Baseball and lead the League in both revenue and titles, with 27 World Series championships and 40 American League Pennants. They have more championships than any other franchise in North American professional sports history, passing the 24 Stanley Cup championships by the Montreal Canadiens in . Throughout the team's history, the franchise has produced some of the most celebrated players in Major League history, including Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, and Yogi Berra. The franchise has seen 44 of its players inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, and the Yankees have retired the numbers of 16 of its players.
The Yankees have achieved widespread popularity and a dedicated fanbase, although they have acquired a polarizing reputation for their heavy spending in pursuit of winning.

To support the Yankees and expand their media coverage, the dedicated television channel YES Network was launched in 2002, and it has become a large source of revenue for the franchise.
