NEW YORK -- In most cities, the All-Star game comes with giddy
welcoming stories anticipating the annual gathering of baseball's
best.

to baseball, all right, but with a different sort of headline: "A-
ROD LOVE NEST."
Only in New York, where players' off-the-field lives and wives
are scrutinized as intensely as their batting averages and won-lost
records. And while the All-Star game is a season highlight in the
Big Apple, it's also an interruption of the daily obsession of the
pennant races.
