Former baseball star Roberto Alomar released a statement to ESPN calling allegations made against him by his former live-in girlfriend “a bunch of lies”.

llya Dall filed a $15 million lawsuit claiming Alomar exposed her and her children to the HIV virus.

“This is a very private, personal matter and I greatly appreciate all the support I have received in the past few days from my family, friends and colleagues in baseball,” the former all-star second baseman said in a statement late yesterday, first reported by ESPN.com. “I am in very good health and I ask that you respect my privacy during this time.” [LINK]

Alomar didn’t confirm or deny his HIV status in his statement.

His new girlfriend is a stunning model named Mariply Rivera who has a body to die for — but does Alomar?
