SAMMY SOSA BIOGRAPHY |

|
Sammy Sosa (born November 12, 1968) is a professional Major League baseball player for the Chicago Cubs. Sammy Sosa ended the 2003 season 10th on baseball's all-time home run list with 539.
After years as a respected power hitter, Sammy Sosa emerged during the 1998 season as one of baseball's greats. It was in this season that both Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire broke Roger Maris's long-standing single season home run record of 61. Sammy Sosa ended the season with 66, behind McGwire's 70. Sammy Sosa found some consolation in winning the National League Most Valuable Player Award for 1998, barely nosing out McGwire.
The following season Sammy Sosa hit 63, again trailing Mark McGwire who hit 65. Sosa, already a home run legend, finally claimed his first home run championship by hitting 50 in the 2000 season.
In 2001, he hit 64 home runs, becoming the first (and, thus far, only) player ever with three 60 home run seasons (though, oddly, he did not lead the league in any of those three seasons; in 2001, he finished behind Barry Bonds). In the same season Sammy Sosa set personal records in runs scored (146), RBIs (160), walks (116), on base percentage (.437), slugging percentage (.737), and batting average (.328). He led the Majors in runs and RBIs, was 2nd in home runs, 2nd in slugging percentage, 3rd in walks, 4th in on base percentage, 12th in batting average, and 15th in hits. |
