TAMPA, Fla. -- Alex Rodriguez has called Sports Illustrated's Selena Roberts to apologize for critical comments he made during an interview with ESPN's Peter Gammons.
Roberts was co-author of the Feb. 7 article on SI's Web site that reported he was on a list of 104 players who tested positive for steroids during baseball's anonymous 2003 survey.
Rodriguez told Gammons two days later that he had used banned substances from 2001 to '03 while playing for Texas.
