Did Sammy Sosa cork his bat?
When somebody gets caught breaking the rules, the questions remain for a lifetime. Sosa was discovered to have used a corked bat during a game against Tampa Bay on June 3rd, 2003 when the bat shattered and was examined by the home plate umpire after the Tampa Bay catcher picked up a piece of the bat, noticed the cork, and threw the bat at the feet of the umpire. He was ejected from that game and MLB subsequently tested 76 other bats that Sosa used for cork. All were clean. He said that he only used the corked bat in batting practice to entertain the fans and mistakenly picked it up when it was his turn to bat. Sosa apologized for the mistake, regardless, he was suspended for seven games. Whether he used a corked bat at other times during his career ... we will never know. But the questions will always remain.

The umpire quickly caught on to his actions. Chris Sabo in 1996 claimed that the corked bat he used belonged to another player. Albert Bellein 1994 got caught and the "Batgate" incident was born as team mate Jason Grimsley crawled through a ceiling and stole the bat from the umpires room. The scandal was uncovered as the bat that was used to make the switch had Paul Sorrento's name on it. (you can't make this stuff up) Billy Hatcher was caught in 1987 and Graig Nettles broke his bat in 1974 when superballs came bouncing out! Norm Cash admitted he used a corked bat in 1961.
