No, he sat out the season to train for the Domincan Reublic National Team.
The last time I seem him play on was the Texas Rangers in 2007 after that I believe he retired.
People that have reached big milestones often have people who dislike him. As Sammy Sosa crept up the all time home run list, people began to hate him, just because he is on another team and he is good.
Sammy Sosa's first major league home run came in the fifth inning of a game against Roger Clemens and the Boston Red Sox on June 21, 1989. It was a solo home run. Sosa batted lead off in that game.
