Well being a life long die hard chicago whitesox fan, this has made my day. Better yet, my YEAR. i always knew something was fishy with "slammin sammy" . Hell, the sox had him in 89, he was horrible. Then a few yrs later he goes from a mediocre suck ass strikeout hitter to absolutely cranking the ball. well, cubs fans, your slammin sosa has finally revealed his source of power. corked bats....to think, that whole year battling mcguire for the home run race....no its all shit. its especially funny because the cubs are actually doing great so far this year, but something always happens LOL. cubs suck, they will always suck. how many outs now sammy? hake:

red sox all the way. What kind of dumass power hitter corks his bat? I know he was injured, but still.... Hurting hall fo fame credentials. But hes still a shoo in.

I dont thik sammy's been using cork bats his entire power hitting career. He's broken bats before, ive seen them, and they havent been corked. Hes going to say that the bat was indeed corked, and that he used it during a homerun hitting exhibition, and it was accidentally mixxed in with the game bats. I dont know what to think right now actually....

im sure they did many tests on the bats when he was in the home run race. i think it was just a recent thing.

Erm..the Red Sox aren't in the NL Central.

the corked bat doesnt help him connect with the ball. It might help his distance a little but he's still got to connect with some ferocity. It's not much of a help if you ask me.
but what the fuck do i know, baseball is shit anyway

Old Reliable · 06-04-2003, 12:17 AM

actually, a corked bat makes it lighter and easier to swing with more of a bang. I would say he gets a 3 game suspension max, just because he is sammy sosa

CaP bUsTa · 06-04-2003, 12:24 AM

well ya but still it takes amazing hand eye coordination to be able to swing the bat so it connects cleanly with the ball. The cork will definately help getting it out of the park though. What a crock

thats why i like tigers baseball, none of that crap!!! cool:
