slammin sammy was a beast...i love how early no fans...later packed house lol & i love how his swag grew , bouncing after home runs...he didnt bounce so much when he was young...GOAT
Im not a sosa fan or cubs fan but I dont think he used roids. Theres no evidence, there was a "leaked" steroid test with sosas name on it positive by the same company david ortiz rumored to test postive for. But hey He was a good ballplayer.
The circumstances surrounding the corking incident are never discussed. I was obsessed and watching every Cubs game on WGN at that point so I know what happened. He had been hit in the head by a Pirates pitcher weeks before the corking incident. After that he struggled and was very timid and afraid in the batters box. I genuinely believe he used the corked bat to try to regain his confidence. I don’t believe he ever used a corked bat before or after that. It was a very tough stretch for him. He deserves to be in the HOF he and McGwire literally saved baseball.
That rightfielder underestamating Sosa's legs...lol..Gotta love Sosa,ran like a beast..Even when he was a little bulkier,still had great speed...A true athlete
@@EssexAggiegrad2011 no it wasnt dude. Why do you think none of those guys like Clemens McGuire palmerro arod sosa never got suspended then???? Because it wasn't illegal then in the mlb
@@StevenEatsAlone yeah I fine with that. Studies have shown it actually harder to hit homers with a corked bat. Also he broke hundreds of bats over his career only one was corked. No pattern
An MLB legend. I’m still a Sosa fan. He was very exciting to watch. #Legend ⚾️🐐
Sammy Sosa was the reason I was a Cubs fan as a kid all I want to be was Sammy Sosa
My uncle played for the cubs in the 2000s. I met Sammy & shook his hand & saw his wife & kids I was like 10 maybe.
Call Sammy what you want. . . But the guy was ENTERTAINING!! 🍿🥤
My first official jersey that i got as a kid was sammy sosas .Since 2000 ive been a die hard cuns fan!
Sammy with the flag after 9/11 was a great moment for sports.
Thanks for the memories Sammy. This was my childhood.

Great video - thank you for making it! The editing was excellent!
Watching the early part of this video you realize Sosa was a big athletic guy even in his first couple years in the league.
Sammy Sosa and Harry Carrey was the greatest combination in baseball
He was a corker and a roider but goddamnit I still love this man. He and Jordan made my childhood so damned special.

Pop and a hop goat
EL MEJOR EL MAS EMOCIONANTE ..
U damish everything with that soundtrack
If you know the song you appreciate it more hombre
He and McGuire saved baseball. Sure they cheated, but it was so entertaining
His first home run was off roger clemens over the monster at fenway as a skinny kid... legendary from the start ✌️
great tape. would love to hear the announcers. music not needed
He is now a white man, he used to be a black man in this scene where he used to play for the cubs.
This man, Bonds, Palmeiro Clemens and McGuire all should be in
Cheater, cheater, cheater and cheater
@@EssexAggiegrad2011 but it wasn't cheating when they did it
@@bobsmith1723 Yeah it was
@@EssexAggiegrad2011 no it wasnt dude. Why do you think none of those guys like Clemens McGuire palmerro arod sosa never got suspended then???? Because it wasn't illegal then in the mlb
@@bobsmith1723 He used drugs to do better. It is cheating.
plz get rid of the music
It's amazing how thin he was as a rookie. Gee, I wonder how he gained all that weight and muscle?
hard work and a complete breakfast😂
Why this song tho ? Killed the whole highlight tape
Y también los cubs
❤
10:22 bros almost had a moment
What is this song called?
"Requiem for a Dream"
Really, really annoying background noise….otherwise thanks for the video
A mi entender,se hizo injusticia con Samuel Sosa, y creo la MLB,son ingratos
totalmente de acuerdo
Hawk Harrelson calling a Sammy Sosa HR feels odd.
Started the juice with the White Sox?
He played for the white sox first?? Holy shit
😘🥰
Sosa mcgwire clemons palmeiro belong in the hall. Pete rose too while im at it
wait, this man isnt in the hall of fame??
No, unfortunately.
He used steroids like mcgwire and everybody else.
The music is so stupid
Hate the music
Lol, ok...
Opposite. Loved it. Perfect choice.
Don't listen to them...great choice for a song!
horrible music. watched on mute. thumbs doooown
Cheater
Too bad he was a cheater
He wasn't. It wasn't cheating in MlB when he allegedly was on roids
@@bobsmith1723 he did have a corked bat too though
@@StevenEatsAlone yeah I fine with that. Studies have shown it actually harder to hit homers with a corked bat. Also he broke hundreds of bats over his career only one was corked. No pattern
