Cano's Biogenesis Ties: Spokeswoman For Cano's Foundation Linked To Clinic

Sonia Cruz, the spokeswoman for Robinson Cano's foundation is listed as having been a client of the Biogenesis clinic last summer, according to ESPN on Monday. Major League Baseball has possession of a Biogenesis client roster that lists the spokeswoman and is investigating whether the Yankees' second baseman had any relationship to the clinic, sources familiar with the investigation told "Outside the Lines."

Cano has denied knowning clinic founder Tony Bosch or having ever used performance-enhancing drugs. However, his best friend and former teammate, Melky Cabrera, his mentor, Alex Rodriguez, and now his spokeswoman have all been connected to clinic documents, MLB wants to know whether any relationship between Cano and the clinic exists. Cruz denies ever having received anything from the clinic and insists that Cano "definitely never did."

Cruz, 31, says she was never a client of the Miami-area clinic at the heart of an ongoing performance-enhancing drug scandal. However, records obtained by "Outside the Lines" list her as owing $300 in both July and August of last year. The records indicate that she  paid her balance in July, but the August records do not mention any payment.
