Roberto Alomar Sued By Ilya Dall For AIDS Phobia (Photos, Video)

Former major league second baseman,is being sued by his ex-girlfriend Ilya Dall in Brooklyn Federal Court for AIDS phobia. She acknowledges that she engaged in unprotected sex for three years with the 12-time All Star ballplayer until he received an HIV-positive diagnosis in early 2006. She claims he told her he was disease free though she now believes he knew he was not.

According to State and Federal court papers, Alomar, 41, retired from a highly successful baseball career in 2005 because of ill health and was diagnosed with full blown AIDS in January 2006. The couple's relationship began in late 2002 and ended in October 2008. Dall does not claim to be HIV-positive but lives in fear that the condition will manifest itself sometime in the future.

The suit claims that nine days after receiving the HIV-positive finding, Alomar went to a disease specialist who discovered a mass. The ballplayer's skin was purple, he was foaming at the mouth and a spinal tape "showed that he had full blown AIDS."

Alomar's lawyer, Charles Bach, is calling the lawsuit frivolous and the allegations baseless. He says his client is "healthy and would like to keep his health status private. We'll do our talking in court."

Dall's lawyer, Anthony J. Piacentini, filed the $15 million lawsuit in State court in Queens last month but has now submitted additional paperwork to have the case moved to Brooklyn Federal court. Dall is alleging that Alomar exhibited many of the symptoms of AIDS as early as 2004 and ignored the advice of medical professions who suggested that he be tested for the condition.

Alomar played for seven teams, including the Mets, Baltimore, Tornonto and Cleveland during his 17 year career. Check out a video from the Toronto Blue Jays home opener in 2008. Alomar's name was added to the 'Level of Excellence' during a pre-game ceremony.
