What the … What happened to Sammy Sosa? Thought my TV might be on the way out, but that was really him talking to ESPN’s Jeremy Schaap about his alleged steroid use. “I never missed any test. … never tested positive.” Who cares? What’s with the face? “It’s a cream that I use to soften my skin, but it has bleached me some.”
While baseball purists may consider Sammy a “two-faced” liar, he told Jeremy, “It’s my life, I do what I want.” Cubs are still distancing themselves from Sosa, but Hollywood has shown interest in casting him as “False Face” in the latest Batman flick. Mark McGwire playing the lead role?
Letdown game? Yanks come off a huge series with the Sox. First-place Atlanta sneaks in. Anibal Sanchez is 4-1 lifetimes versus Bombers. 20 units on the Bravos.
And stay down there! Mets left the Fish in the cellar with a 5-2 victory. Wasn’t pretty. Had all of six hits and made three errors. Steven Matz: one unearned run, three hits over 5 ¹/₃ for the W. Favorite part: Scoreboard read, “Make Noise Miami” but the 611 people must not have been looking. Win has us at -1,113 koosmans.
