Bristol, CT (My Sportsbook) - The cousin to whom New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez referred Tuesday as the supplier of performance- enhancing drugs to the perennial All-Star has been revealed as Miami resident Yuri Sucart, according to ESPN.

The network stated that they received a positive identity of Sucart from a phone conversation Wednesday night with his wife, Carmen.

"I told you my husband has nothing to say," the woman told ESPN. "What A-Rod said at the press conference is what happened and that is all. And if you want to talk to my husband, why don't you talk to his lawyer?"

During his news conference Tuesday, an apologetic Rodriguez spoke to reporters at spring training about his prior use of performance-enhancing drugs. Saying he was "curious" and calling it a "stupid mistake," Rodriguez gave details about how he and a nameless cousin experimented with steroids from 2001 through 2003 while he was a member of the Texas Rangers.

Rodriguez tested positive for steroids in 2003, results that were supposed to remain anonymous under an agreement between Major League Baseball and its players union, but Sports Illustrated broke the story on February 7 and two days later the three-time AL MVP admitted to using banned substances for a three-year period from 2001 through 2003 during an interview with ESPN.
