Sammy Sosa married?

On Sunday (12/19) on my local Fox affiliate, I saw a story about
Sammy Sosa getting married in Puerto Rico and they even had
video of the ceremony…

Being a Sosa fan, I immediately went online and did a search
for the story to find out more, but never did find anything about
it anywhere. I used Yahoo and Google, ESPN, Fox and more…
and even as of today I can’t find anything about it.

So am I dreaming it, or did anyone else see that story??

  • I saw the same video here in St. Louis.

  • I thought Sammy Sosa's been married long time ago. What I heard (on some sports news) a couple of months ago Mike Piazza is getting married. Didn't hear say anything about Sammy Sosa getting married.






    RIP Snow

    Seems I missed part of the story... here it is.

    New York Daily News

    WASHINGTON - Sammy Sosa renewed his vows with wife, Sonia, on Saturday in the Dominican Republic. Mets general manager Omar Minaya attended the religious service, and appears to be renewing his efforts to obtain the slugger.

    Mets insiders say their differences with the Cubs on finances were like "night and day" when talks stalled several weeks ago, and that with no other serious suitors and Sosa's recently diminished production, Chicago brass will need to cave in financially before any deal can be consummated. One team official said the team had "cooled" on Sosa.

    Minaya also said several players under contract to other teams have contacted him since Pedro Martinez committed to the Mets.

    Minaya has been highly visible in the Dominican Republic since taking over as Mets GM. He participated in a news conference in Santo Domingo on Friday with Martinez and recently attended the dedication of a field honoring Alfonso Soriano in the eastern Dominican town of Quisqueya.

    "It's on the radar," one source familiar with the discussions said about the Mets acquiring Sosa. "He's not staying down there to finalize a deal with Sosa."

    Adam Katz, who represents Sosa, is believed to have held at least casual discussions with Minaya. The financial obstacles to a deal are on two fronts -- with the Cubs and with Sosa.

    Chicago owes Sosa $17.5 million in 2005, with an option for '06 of $18 million that can be bought out for $4.5 million. If Sosa is traded, the contract automatically kicks in for '06, and a $19 million option for '07 with the same buyout.

  • I am just keeping my fingers crossed that Sosa doesn't go to the Mets. If he does I might ignore baseball until he leaves the team.
