Episode 327 - Sammy Sosa Takes the Crosstown Express
Manage episode 409350632 series 2814344
The Cubs might not be willing to acknowledge it today, but it was 32 years ago this week that they acquired one of the greatest players in franchise history, trading away aging slugger George Bell for a dynamic, young Sammy Sosa. Sosa would go on to challenge for the single season home run record, club more than 600 career bombs, and win an MVP. Mike and Bill look back at Sosa's incredible rise, somewhat inexplicable fall, and try to figure out why the Cubs still pretend that he never existed.
Plus, happy birthday to Kip Selbach and Travis Fryman!
And farewell to Tom Qualters and Jim Hannan
