"Dominicans' Favorite Son: Sammy Sosa, Home Run Hitter"


Quotes from an article from Saturday, September 5th, 1998
by David W. Chen

"We can escape the politics and the problems, because we are all proud of Sosa," said Leonardo Ivan Dominguez, a dance instructor who works for Alianza Dominicana, a social service agency in Washington Heights. "He's a hero, and he's going to be the whole mirror for the kids in his country."

---------------------

"It's always McGwire, McGwire, McGwire; there's too much McGwire," complained Charles Rosario, who works at an electronics store in Washington Heights. "I think it's because McGwire is American, and white, and Sosa is a Dominican, and black. Americans want to see McGwire break the record."

...WELL,

NOT ANYMORE...

"He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin. Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white. I thought it was a body double. Part of [the photo appearance] is just the lighting." Polihronis said Sosa told her the photos are deceiving.

SMH!
