Sammy Sosa Quotes
"Don't compare me to Babe Ruth. God gave me the opportunity and the ability to be here at the right time, at the
right moment, just like he gave Babe Ruth when he was playing. I just hope I can keep doing what I've been doing -
keep taking care of business."
"To tell the truth, I never think about a homer. I'm just thinking of the situation and what I've got to do when I go to the plate."
"He (Roberto Clemente) is a hero to me."
During the home run race of '98:
"I'm not even thinking about passing McGwire. The season will be over September twenty-seventh. Mark will go home, and
I will go to the playoffs."
"I'm not keeping track, but the record is there for someone to break."
"Mark is the man."
"At first I thought sixty-one was something special. The sixty-one was something that reminded me of Mark. He hit
sixty-one and sixty-two against us. Then I got sixty-two. It was something unbelievable. I couldn't believe what I was
doing. I couldn't believe what was happening."
About the Expos fans at a ballgame:
"They discovered 'boo' is pronounced the same in French as it is in English."
...and about Sammy:
"He's beyond description. I don't know the right words to describe how great a season he's had. You say MVP type season,
but I don't know if that's enough to describe it."
"I didn't think he hit the ball that hard. The ball just kept going."
"Sammy's a September player, so you have to watch out for him. It's crunch time, time to make history."
