This is kinda sad. I really hope this guy wasn't cheating on purpose.
Sosa a cheat??

CHICAGO (AP) -- Once Sammy Sosa was caught using a corked bat, there was one big question: Was he cheating when he hit any of those 505 home runs?

The Chicago Cubs' star slugger, 17th on the career home-run list, was ejected in the first inning of Tuesday night's 3-2 win over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays after umpires found cork in his shattered bat.

Sosa said it was all an honest mistake.

Being from Chicago, I'll back my boy Sammy up. He's always used corked bats for batting practice for the fans. Just watch how quickly the Chicago media surrounds to protect Sammy hehehe.

At the press conference the reporters actually laughed out loud when he suggested he accidentally grabbed the wrong bat to hit with during the game.
