Alex Rodriguez has bolstered his legal team, adding Jay Reisinger, who has represented a number of high-profile baseball players who have been confronted with questions about the use of performance-enhancing drugs.

According to several people familiar with the matter, Reisinger will work alongside the lawyer James E. Sharp, who has represented Rodriguez since it was revealed two weeks ago that he had tested positive for steroids in 2003.

The people spoke on the condition of anonymity because they did not want to be identified discussing matters related to the use of performance-enhancing drugs.

Rodriguez is not the only high-profile baseball player that Reisinger and Sharp have represented together. They represent Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte, who is a government witness in the perjury investigation of Roger Clemens. In 2005, Reisinger and Sharp represented Sammy Sosa when he testified at a hearing before Congress. In each instance, Reisinger was the lead lawyer.
