    "T.R. Sullivan: A Retrospective On The Harold Baines-Sammy Sosa Trade"

  • 2025
    "Legendary Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa returned to Wrigley Field for the first time in more than 20 years Friday before Chicago's afternoon game with the Seattle Mariners."

  • 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?"
