NY- Embattled Yankee superstar Alex Rodriguez was seen yesterday arm in arm with an attractive blond - but this time it was his wife.
Four days after a paparazzo caught him in Toronto with another woman, A-Rod emerged in Boston yesterday with his gorgeous wife standing by her man.
The couple seemed at peace with each other, smiling as A-Rod signed autographs outside the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Beantown, where the Yankees will take on the hated Red Sox in a three-game series beginning tonight.
But when a reporter approached his wife, Cynthia Rodriguez, Alex Rodriguez scowled and brusquely stopped her from answering questions.
"It's been enough," said Alex Rodriguez, 31, who wore a white polo shirt and jeans.
When last seen, Cynthia Rodriguez, 34, was toting two pieces of luggage Wednesday night as she left their luxury Park Ave. apartment in Manhattan.
She was in no mood then to talk about her hubby's coast-to-coast romps in strip clubs and bars, some of them with one specific blond.
But although she remained silent yesterday, Cynthia Rodriguez's face seemed far less weary and more relaxed. Sources close to the Yankees told the Daily News that she plans to stay with him through the weekend, then travel with him to Chicago as the Bombers continue a 10-day road trip.
The firestorm over the slugger's personal life erupted over the weekend when A-Rod was spotted going to a Toronto strip club and then a hotel with a blond gal pal.
Reports quickly flooded in about similar sightings of A-Rod with blonds in other cities.
He even has his own favorite hottie in New York - and followed her when she switched from one strip club to another, insiders say.
The curvy, brown-eyed stripper, who goes by the name Monique at the Hustler Club, acknowledged knowing Alex Rodriguez but declined to offer any details.
"We met at the VIP Club a few years ago. I don't want to get him in anymore trouble than he's already in," she said last night.
A-Rod and his wife dined together last night, leaving the Ritz-Carlton in a cab and heading to Grill 23 and Bar in downtown Boston.
They were surrounded by security and an entourage. Asked how they were doing, one person in the group said simply, "Good."
A-Rod's in-laws also poured cold water on the reports that the $252 million man has been stepping out without his wife.
"They're fine," Evangeline Scurtis, 60, Cynthia Rodriguez's mother, said in the driveway of her Miami home. "They're doing fine."
