The long-awaited film about the Chicago Cubs 1998 home run race aired on Sunday, and while it was great to see Sammy Sosa, the story felt like something was missing.
ESPN aired the long-awaited documentary on Sunday called ‘Long Gone Summer,’ which told the story about the home run race in 1998 between the Chicago Cubs’ Sammy Sosa and the St. Louis Cardinals’ Mark McGwire.
The story was great for showcasing Sosa and what he meant to the Cubs and their fans, but the documentary had little excitement to it and felt like a bore outside of the home run highlights from the two sluggers.
