Sosa enters 600 club
Last night, Sammy Sosa became the fifth player in Major League history to reach the 600 homerun plateau, and the second to do so with the aid of steroids (the other being Barry Bonds, of course). Sosa had sat out the 2006 season in a prolonged sulk after no team offered to pay him the big bucks he was used to receiving (this was because of his paltry .221 average with Baltimore in 2005).
