Next time Sosa's corked bat breaks, Clemens will have something lighter to throw at the runner.

Damn....I finally think of something funny to say and you beat me to the draw.

How about, "Do you get an 8 day suspension for throwing a corked bat?"

Clemen's could get #300 and his 4,000 strikeout too.

GO YANKS!

Did you just see Sosa running out into center field holding up either a fist or a "#1" sign? I'd expect a bit more humility from a guy who just got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

Some trivia:

What current active player has the most strikeouts lifetime vs. Clemens?

and...

What current active Yankee has the most strikeouts vs. him?

NO CHEATING.

Nice catch. ...Hard to tell exactly what he's doing with that hand.

Sosa's up now. ....Let's see if he can hit the thing out of the infield with a regular bat.

Clemens just threw a 99 mph heater past him.

Gold glover Ventura grabs a soft grounder going left, Sosa out.

Just as Clinton got into some trouble with his "bat" Sosa's bat trouble has helped to ruin his rep in my mind.
I've been a Cubs fan for many years but I can't look the other way on this. I'm got to be consistant.

Alright, my last guess is the longtime Yankee Bernie Williams.
