He homered twice, walked to key another Seattle rally and singled to start their three-run ninth that put the game away....2025

2025
"(2) 1997 - Chicago Cubs outfielder Sammy Sosa and Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Tony Womack hit inside-the-park home runs in the sixth inning of the Cubs’ 2-1 win."

2024
"The team record is five games, by Hack Wilson (1928), Ryne Sandberg (1989), Sammy Sosa (1998) and Christopher Morel (2023)."

2023
"Sammy Sosa homered, his 52nd, in the fourth to give the Cubs a 4-1 lead."

2022
"Each of Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Curt Schilling and Sammy Sosa has exhausted…"

2021
"Among his clients were Sammy Sosa, Ken Griffey and Dock Ellis."

2020
"While everyone else watched Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa hit homers in 1998, the Yankees had one of MLB's greatest seasons -- but it has been largely lost to history."

2019
"While many of the eras more controversial stars – Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Sammy Sosa and Manny Ramirez for starters – are likely to continue to look from the outside in, an impressive class is very a guarantee."

2018
"Cubs owner Tom Ricketts believes players from the steroid era "owe us a little bit of honesty," and until Sammy Sosa does that, he's not welcome."

2017
"That's all it will take for Giancarlo Stanton to become the sixth member of baseball's elite 60-home run club, along with Babe Ruth, Roger Maris, Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa."

2016
"Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa are the notable exclusions, while Jeff Bagwell and Jeff Kent suffered from simply playing in the PED era."

2015
" Furthermore, Rodriguez now sits one game back of Sammy Sosa and Johnny Mize for the most three home-run games of all time, per ESPN Stats & Info."

2014
"Is John Smoltz Worthy of Being First-Ballot 2015 Hall of Famer?"
