Happy 58th birthday to seven-time MLB All-Star, six-time Silver Slugger, 1998 National League MVP and Roberto Clemente Award winner, Sammy Sosa!
Sosa was one of the most exciting baseball players of the 1990’s and his home run chase with Mark McGwire in 1998 helped reinvigorate a baseball fanbase that had been disillusioned with the league following the 1994 MLB lockout.
Sosa spent 13 of his 18 MLB seasons with the Chicago Cubs, where he eclipsed the 50-HR milestone four times, led baseball in RBIs twice and runs scored twice.
After a final All-Star appearance in 2004, Sosa finished out his career with stints in Baltimore and Texas before hanging up his cleats with 609 home runs, 1,667 RBI and 234 stolen bases to his credit.
Which brings us to today’s quiz. Sosa’s 545 home runs while on the North Side of Chicago are the most by a Cub in the franchise’s 151-season history. With that being said, can you name every MLB franchise’s all-time home run leader?
Good luck!
