Sammy had a contest to hit more homeruns then Sammy hit 66 homeruns and Mcgwire hit 77 homeruns and Mcgwire won the contest.

After the ’98 season was over Sosa was honored as a sports hero around the United States.

In N,Y,C Sosa was given a parade for being a good player and for being a good friend .

As for Sammy he would rather be remembered for his deeds on the field.

The 1998 season made Sammy Sosa a Baseball legend not only in the united states but around the world.

Sosa was not on the cubes he was on the white sox and people say “he`s the man”.
