When Anthony Bosch exposed Alex Rodriguez's effortless tactics to flip positive drug test results

Anthony Bosch had acknowledged helping Alex Rodriguez, the former New York Yankees shortstop, with his steroid use. Bosch, the originator of Biogenesis, claimed to have given Alex Rodriguez "gummies" lozenges laced with testosterone that could be taken orally before or during games. The specialty of the gummies was that they remained undetectable in follow-up drug tests in the clubhouse.

Bosch claimed that starting in 2010, he bought various prohibited performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) for Rodriguez, including insulin-like growth factor 1, human growth hormone, peptides, and testosterone-filled candies.

Bosch likewise claimed that he had offered Rodriguez detailed instructions on submitting a urine sample for testing by MLB drug inspectors.

Bosch said, "Beating the drug tests was “almost a cakewalk”.

According to Bosch, Rodriguez became aware of the performance-enhancing substances he was given.

Rodriguez had disagreed with the claims of drug usage for a long time. Meanwhile, Bosch claimed he received a request from a friend of Rodriguez's to relocate to Colombia, where he would get at least $20,000 per month until the Biogenesis inquiry was resolved. According to Bosch, his ex-girlfriend received a Spanish text message threatening Bosch's life when he refused to move.
