The agent for Alex Rodriguez has been accused of asking Biogenesis founder Tony Bosch of covering up the use of performance-enhancing drugs in connection with another former Major League Baseball star.

According to Newsday on Nov. 14, Scott Boras, also Manny Ramirez's agent, urged Bosch to invent bogus medical records and create an explanation for a failed drug test by Ramirez.

Bosch revealed Boras' scheme to Drug Enforcement Agency officers as part of a plea arrangement in the federal case against Bosch and the Biogenesis clinic - the South Florida facility that was accused of supplying PEDs to multiple baseball players, stated the source.

Bosch is one of eight men arrested on federal charges for their involvement in the clinic. He has agreed to testify against his co-defendants as part of his guilty plea.

The Biogenesis founder gives a detailed account of Boras' scheme, Newsday reported.

Ramirez tested positive for PEDs in 2009 while a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Bosch said that Boras wanted Bosch to back a story that Ramirez used an elderly uncle's testosterone cream, believing that it was shaving cream.

Bosch said the fabrication was to be part of an appeal of a 50-game suspension Ramirez received for his first positive MLB drug test.

Boras did not respond to email or phone messages from Newsday but released a statement Friday night, saying, "I have never met Tony Bosch. I have never talked to Tony Bosch. I have never been to his office or conducted any meetings with him.

"In 2009, we received notice of a positive drug test for Manny Ramirez," Boras said in his statement. "It was while investigating that matter we learned about Tony Bosch for the first time. We were told he was a doctor treating Ramirez. One of our staff attorneys reached out to Bosch to obtain his medical records, like we would with any doctor."

Bosch also testified that Boras asked him to include HCG - a fertility drug - as part of his medical records, thinking it wasn't among MLB's banned substance list. Boras asked Bosch to produce a patient chart after learning the Bosch didn't keep records on his patients.
