- Watch all of Sammy Sosa's 64 home runs in 2001
In 2001, Sammy Sosa became the first player in Major League history to hit 60 home runs in three seasons. He also became the first player to hit 3 home runs in a single game three times in the same season. His 64 home runs rank 5th most in a single season. He started the year with 386 career home runs and finished the year with 450. He hit a whopping 17 home runs in August alone, earning him NL Player of the Month honors. His 14th home run of the season was his 400th of his career, and his 53rd home run was the longest home run ever hit at Turner Field, at 471 feet. He finished 2nd in the Majors and the National League in home runs behind Barry Bonds, who hit a record 73 home runs of his own. But Sammy led the Majors and the NL in RBI (160), runs scored (146), total bases (425), and intentional walks (37). He set career highs in batting average (.328), RBIs (160), runs scored (146), extra base hits (103), walks (116), on-base percentage (.437), slugging percentage (.737), OPS (1.174), and sacrifice flies (12).
Sosa's 160 RBIs were the most in the National League in 71 years, since Hack Wilson's record 191 in 1930, and the second most in the Majors in more recent decades, behind Manny Ramirez's 165 in 1999. His 146 runs scored is tied for the second most in modern baseball, and his 425 total bases are seventh most all-time, and the most in modern baseball. His 103 extra base hits are tied for third most in modern baseball. He also became just the third player to hit 50 home runs in four different seasons and the second to do so in four consecutive seasons. He finished second in NL MVP voting, even receiving some first place votes, won a Silver Slugger Award, and was the starting right fielder for the National League in the All-Star Game. Sammy Sosa's 2001 season was not only the best season of his career, but is truly one of the absolute best seasons ever.

I made it a point to be home to watch Sammy Sosa and the Cubs on WGN back then. Man was he exciting to watch!!
Me too. I didn't have cable but it was almost guaranteed that I could watch the Cubs daily on channel 9
Thank you for putting this together.
I Had No Idea That Sammy Sosa Got So Big That He Has An Channel lmao
@Bread And Circuses IMHO Sammy Would Tell You It Was 1998
@Bread And Circuses True But Sosa Also Had Albert Pujols To Contend With
His wild home runs are more appealing than Mcgwire and Bonds.
Moreover, he recorded 60 homeruns three time.
Will always be my favorite Cub
I remember back then in the middle of the season when he was on track to get 60 I could stand off days.. They just seemed to last forever.. Man those were great times.
64 HR and 160 rbis....dayummm Dat boy is alright
The people that whine about steroids are full of shit if they say they didn't enjoy this. Not only that, but you know damn well they were jumping up and down with everyone loving every minute of this. They know this is the best baseball they have ever seen or will ever see. The people that whine about steroids are full of shit if they say they didn't enjoy this. Not only that, but you know damn well they were jumping up and down with everyone loving every minute of this. They know this is the best baseball they have have ever seen or will ever see. They are ashamed that they got duped when it was obvious what was happening haha and now they want to lash out and whine about cheating when there are dozens of steroid users in the Hall of Fame. Bonds McGuire Sosa Clemens Rafael palmeiro Mike Piazza Pudge Rodriguez Alex Rodriguez Jeff bagwell Gary Sheffield Manny Ramirez David Ortiz Gonzales Brady Anderson Mo Vaughn Albert Belle Bo Jackson Eric gagne I mean this was amazing baseball and baseball today is nothing compared to this. Not even close and you can't even pretend that it is. Anyone that says baseball today is half as good as it was then is full of shit. This is the best baseball in the history of baseball and if it's because of steroids and thank you steroids and let's bring them back because if it meant we would get exciting baseball like this again I would serve it up to them on a silver platter
"Say it ain't so" Sammy Sosa. 😟
Para mi muy personal fue el jugador más excitante de su época, el público tenía las espectativas de jonrón en cada turno.

Sammy fue sencillamente extraordinario
Never tested positive 😂
He did test positive on the mitchell report. Read dont be ignorant.
@@baseball-xt3ujhe is not in Mitchel report
@@renbowdashelimelelisaira8016 he definitely is. Look it up dont be such an ignorant person posting something on ignorance and without doing research.
Forgot all about the inside-the- park one.
I wish Harry Carey would have been around for "The Chase" of 98...would much rather hear Harry with these HR calls.
Also it's phenomenal that he beat the old homerun record of 61 three times and never once was the league leader in home runs haha.
He hits 66 in 1998 and came in second to McGuire who hit 70 he hit 63 in 1999 and came in second to McGuire again who hit 65 and then he hit 64 in 01 when bonds hit 73
He led the league in 2000 and the NL in 2002, he just didn't lead the league or even the NL either of the three years he hit 60. The odds of him not leading the league those three seasons when those are three of the top six home run totals of all-time are extremely low, but yet it happened. It's just a crazy fact.
The biteys love sosa
Old ESPN >>>
Word
Sosa wanted steroids so he can do this.
