NEW YORK -- Alex Rodriguez said Wednesday hes cutting off all non-baseball talk after a wild weekend of accusations and retaliations on and off the field. Playing while he appeals a 211-game suspension for violating baseballs drug agreement and labour contract, the New York Yankees star and his fleet of lawyers and representatives sparred with the Yankees and Major League Baseball over his medical care and evidence in the doping case that stems from MLBs investigation into Biogenesis, the now-closed Florida anti-aging clinic accused of distributing performance-enhancing drugs. "I think thats behind us now. Ive shut everything down," Rodriguez said. "I want everything to be 100 per cent on baseball and thats what I want my guys to focus on." Rodriguez was not in the Yankees lineup Wednesday night, a day after playing both games of a doubleheader against the Toronto Blue Jays. The teams will play a day game Thursday. "I felt I couldnt play him both tonight and tomorrow, its probably too much," manager Joe Girardi said. Rodriguezs change of public-relations strategy comes after a weekend in Boston that turned increasingly intense and bizarre. -- While the Yankees were playing the AL East-leading Red Sox, it was learned Rodriguez paid Florida-based attorney Susy Ribero-Ayala in February to represent Anthony Bosch, head of the Biogenesis of America anti-aging clinic. ESPN first reported the deal. -- Rodriguezs newest lawyer, Joseph Tacopina, accused the Yankees of botching the sluggers medical care last post-season when the three-time MVP was benched and pinch hit for during a pitiful playoff performance. Rodriguez had left hip surgery in January. -- Team president Randy Levine basically dared A-Rod to file a grievance, and the slugger said his lawyers would ask the players union to do so. -- Yankees general manager Brian Cashman told reporters on the field in Boston that he felt "lied to" by Rodriguez regarding his medical care, and that he doesnt feel comfortable talking to one of the teams most important players because they are in "a litigious environment." -- Finally on Monday, MLB wrote to Tacopina, urging him to waive his clients confidentiality under baseballs Joint Drug Agreement so all the evidence relating to the drug case could be released. The letter was given to Tacopina on the "Today" show. Tacopina rejected the offer. "I think thats behind us now," Rodriguez said. "Out of respect to my team and my manager and my coaches we are in the middle of a pennant race. Were playing pretty well right now. We want to keep the focus on the field." Rodriguez wasnt free of controversy on the field, either. In the second inning of Sundays nationally televised game, Bostons Ryan Dempster threw three close pitches at Rodriguez before hitting him with another. Manager Joe Girardi was ejected for his outburst after Dempster was not ejected. The moment appeared to galvanize the team, and the third baseman led the charge with a long home run that kicked off a sixth inning rally. Dempster was suspended Tuesday for five games and fined $2,500. Rodriguez would not comment on the penalty. Rodriguez returned from hip surgery Aug. 5, the day he was suspended by MLB. The Yankees were swept three straight by the lowly Chicago White Sox in his first three games but have been on a tear since. Theyve won nine of 12 to creep back into the AL wild-card race -- 4 1/2 games back of the second spot. Rodriguez is batting .296 with two homers and six RBIs in 15 games. "I think if we keep doing what weve been doing the last two weeks -- I think were playing with a lot of energy, a lot of confidence, (getting) a lot of contributions from a lot of people," Rodriguez said. "I think we have an opportunity thats special and we want to put the focus on the field." Nmd Human Race Italia . You can watch the game live on TSN at 7:30pm et/4:30pm pt.

Australia lock Dean Mumm has backed Exeter Chiefs boss Rob Baxter to succeed Eddie Jones as England coach.Lock Mumm hailed Baxter for reinvigorating his career during his three-year stint at the Sandy Park club: the 32-year-old admitted he thought his Wallabies career was over when joined the Chiefs, but now credits Baxter and Exeter for handing him a new lease of life at Test level.England chief Ian Ritchie believes national coach Jones eventual successor must boast international-level experience, but Mumm insists Baxter can thrive in the Test arena.I would definitely endorse Rob for the England role, said Mumm of Exeter boss Baxters credentials to coach England. Its fair to say hes doing a reasonable job at the moment.The way Exeter have risen in the last few years is a great showcase for what he can do.A host of Aviva Premiership coaches reacted with frustration to RFU boss Ritchies assertion that Jones successor with England must boast Test coaching experience to contest the role.Englands Australian boss Jones could step down in 2019, with the RFU keen to draw up contingency plans for his replacement. Exeter boss Baxter, Northamptons Jim Mallinder and Leicesters Richard Cockerill have all already expressed surprise at Ritchies comments.That trio believes the consensus among English top-flight coaches is that England are yet to hand a successful Premiership boss the chance to lead the national side.Mumm thinks Baxter has already proven himself capable of coaching at Test level, leading Exeter to last terms Premiership final.I think the extra four years now can give him tremendous experience in the Premiership level, said Mumm. Obviously results will matter over the course of that time.Now youre at that top and forcing that different type of pressure, that will really show whether youve got that readiness.dddddddddddd But I would wholeheartedly endorse him for it.Mumm swapped the Waratahs for Exeter in 2012 fully expecting his Australia career to end on 33 caps. The forward relished his rejuvenation at the Chiefs however, before returning home and forcing his way into Australias squad for the 2015 World Cup.The Wallabies powered all the way to the tournaments final, with Mumm since moving past 50 Test caps and remaining an integral part of Michael Cheikas Australia squad.Back in England and gearing up for Australias Rugby Championship clash with Argentina at Twickenham on Saturday, Mumm explained just how Baxter and Exeter helped him force his Wallabies comeback.The perspective with which I came to the UK in 2012 was thinking that I wasnt going to have a Wallaby career beyond that point, Mumm said.So to come back now flying in with the Wallabies, theres a real sense of pride in that, and one that you dont take any moment in this jersey for granted.Every chance you get to wear it and do something in it is particularly important. Without a doubt Im a better player for having gone to Exeter.The mental perspective is so important in your career, how you mentally drive yourself is just as important as the physical elements.That was certainly improved through my time at Exeter. Also I think down there its a real love of the game, the tribalism and those elements, theyre really exciting and can really reinvigorate you as an individual.I certainly got that in terms of the way they handled it, but also some of the enjoyment in some of the more amateur-style approaches to some of the things they do off the field. That was a terrific experience for me. ' ' '
