Arguably one of the sports world's hottest athletes wives, Cynthia Rodriguez - wife of Yankees player Alex Rodriguez (A-Rod) - may be on the singles market once again (note to interested bachelors: the couple does have a kid).

New Yorkers and Yankee fans alike awoke this morning to the shocking cover story - accompanied by photo: Yankees player Alex Rodriguez (better known as A-Rod) is seen entering a Toronto strip club with a mystery blonde Sunday night.  The Yankees played and lost against the Blue Jays Monday.

"The cozy duo dined with two pals at a pricey steakhouse late Sunday night," the Post reported, "then headed to a glitzy strip club before making their way to his hotel, where the pair ducked into an elevator and headed upstairs just after midnight."

Rodriguez and his guest stayed at the Four Seasons while most of his Yankees teammates and coaches were checked in down the road at the Park Hyatt, the Post reported.

"It's the talk of baseball fans and New Yorkers and now the nation this afternoon," expressed Gambling911.com's own hottie reporter, Jenny Woo, who named Cynthia Rodriguez among her top 10 hottest athletes wives two times in a row.

Matt Lauer, Host of NBC's Today Show asked Cynthia about their courtship back in 2004 when A-Rod first moved to New York City.

“In the beginning it was kind of crazy. You know he traveled a lot and I was working, and I was also in school getting my graduate degree. And so… I would say a friendship that developed into a relationship.”

When asked about the stunning photo of baseball's hot couple appearing in Sports Illustrated, A-Rod responded: “I thought she (Cynthia) looked amazing. Notice I was hiding behind her.”

Cynthia was nowhere to be found during the slugger's night on the town. 

For the New York Post, news of the story has resulted in a difficult to access website throughout the afternoon.

The New York Yankees were listed with odds of 8 to 1 to win the 2007 World Series at press time at Betmaker (see website here) and 6 to 1 to win the American League Pennant with odds falling fast. 

Betmaker.com publicized the Yankees latest odds to win the 2007 World Series at +1100 or $100 bet would pay out $1100.  They are +725 to win the American League pennant.
