The superstar slugged his way to fame, smashing 609 home runs. Most recently, Sosa reflected on his chances of making the Hall of Fame.?

The Chicago Cubs legend fell off the ballot last year after failing to receive the required 75% votes to qualify. Sosa has now revealed his opinion on making the Hall of Fame.

Most recently, the superstar slugger opened up on making the Hall. He seems resigned to the fact that he has a low chance of making it to Cooperstown. MLB insider Hector Gomez shared Sosa?s statement via Twitter.
