A Major League Baseball executive vice president of player relations Rob Manfred told ESPN.com that the league's investigation into allegations that Yuri Sucart, the steroid-supplying cousin of new York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez, was spotted at the team's hotel earlier this week, is closed.

"Our position is, we told the Yankees, they agreed, that (Sucart) should not be allowed in any non-public areas; clubhouses, any team charters, buses. And it's our understanding that that prohibition has been respected," Manfred told ESPN.com. "We've talked to the Yankees and they've assured us the prohibition has been respected."

During a press conference in the spring of 2009, Alex Rodriguez admitted using steroids while a member of the Rangers from 2001-03; he said Sucart (his cousin) would acquire the steroids from the Dominican Republic and inject them into the All-Star.

He said Sucart would acquire the steroids from the Dominican Republic and inject them into the All-Star. Following that admission, the Yankees—in connection with MLB—banned Sucart from any team-related function or facility.

On Thursday morning, the New York Daily News reported Sucart again is traveling with the team on some road trips and was at the team's hotel in San Francisco on Tuesday night. And that he had done so last season as well.

"All we can do is control his access to areas that (MLB) or the team control. We will stay in touch with the Yankees to make sure that prohibition is being respected. A hotel lobby is a public place; there is nothing we can do," Manfred added.
The above came from the inter net. My question is why doesn't A-Rod's hits, homeruns be taken off of his record for those years that he cheated while in Texas. When he hit the 600th home run I wonder if he felt a little GUILTY.
