The Cubs™ are trailing 10-8 as they continue to battle for a spot in the National League™ playoffs. The pitcher is righty Eric Plunk. The count is 2-and-1. The pitch is a fastball, and Sosa smacks it 480 feet to left for No. 62! The crowd of 40,846 at Wrigley erupts as Sosa circles the bases. A 6-minute delay follows as fans litter the field while chanting "Sam-mee! Sam-mee!" The Cubs' rightfielder emerges from the dugout for 3 curtain calls. When all quiets down, the Cubs go on to win the game 11-10 on Mark Grace's 10th-inning homer. (Reference photo provided by Steven Schwab.)
