It sucks that he cheated like that. Honestly I don't think he's been using one the whole time, he's been in a bad slump since coming off the DL, maybe he was looking for an edge.

To say that he's a shitty hitter because he used a corked bat is ridiculous.....there's a lot more corked bats out there than you realize, and the people talking shit right now probably couldn't make contact with a 90mph+ fastball with a whiffle ball bat.

Albert Belle got caught corking his bat once, and he hit a shitload of homers afterwards.


BTW, I agree, cheating is bad, no excuse for it, but it doesn't mean Sosa is a bad hitter, nor do I think it should negate any of the things he's accomplished thus far.
