The mysterious incognito appearance of Alex Rodriguez over the weekend has been revealed: He is in love in Santiago, the Ciudad Corazon. The New York Yankee third baseman and the best paid player in baseball spent practically all day on Saturday, 6 April together with his new love, which, according to Diario Libre sources, is Rebeca Yunen Finke, 24, an honors graduate in Business Administration from PUCMM. Her father is well-known businessman Alberto Yunen Zouain and her mother is Pamen Finke, a distinguished lady from Puerto Plata. Rebeca is also the niece of Centro Leon director Rafael Emilio Yunen.
The man who met A-Rod at the Cibao Airport in a limousine was said to be the young lady’s father, who took him to the Gran Almirante Hotel, where he took the presidential suite. He did not register in his own name. The ballplayer arrived in his Gulfstream IV, an airplane worth US$38 million, on Friday, 5 April at 8:09 pm, together with a friend. He asked the authorities at the terminal to exercise maximum discretion regarding his arrival and departure.
It was not possible to find out where he was on Saturday morning and afternoon, because he left the hotel early, but in the evening, Alex and Rebeca dined at the Sabrass Restaurant at Plaza Galerias Boulevard on Juan Pablo Duarte Avenue. Later, Alex returned to his hotel together with his friend who had another room. Diario Libre found out that Alex and Rebeca met at a social function in Casa de Campo, La Romana about six months ago.
