A-Rod, Kate Hudson Take Romance Coast-To-Coast

We've already seen actress Kate Hudson and Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez light up the Eastern seaboard -- this weekend, they loved her hometown, LA.

Rodriguez, in town for a three-game series against the Angels, joined up with his new paramour for a day over the weekend for some high-end shopping at Barney's New York in Beverly Hills. The duo got the royal treatment, as they were allowed to shop alone after the store had closed for the day. Sources told RadarOnline.com the lovebirds were picking out each other's outfits during the fashion show for two. Paps caught the pair driving down Sunset Blvd. on the way home.

Hudson's presence certainly did not seem to distract the handsome hitter from baseball, as Rodriguez -- despite his team losing all three games -- mashed three home runs in the weekend series.
