    MLB - Did you know? Old Man Sosa, Griffey and 600

    Only Sammy Sosa was older than Ken Griffey Jr. at the time of his 600th home run.

    I've never understood why the Corked Bat episode never took on more prominence than it did. People complain he cheated with the steroids but it's never totally been proven, however the cork was there for all to see. And i'm pretty sure i'm not buying that it was his ONLY time he ever did it as he claimed.

    Cobra King, didn't you hear?

    He uses corked bats during batting practice to give the fans a thrill. He accidentally grabbed the wrong bat when he went to bat during the actual game.

    Happens to the best of us, easy mistake to make. No harm no foul.

    I still have one of those cork t-shirts from a few years ago. The "C" in cork has the Cubs logo in it.

    You guys missed that episode of Mythbusters? They proved that a cork bat does nothing for distance but rather hurts it. Odd thing about that show if I remember is that the MLB specifically asked them not to show how to cork a bat. Take that for what it's worth.
