The internet wants to know: What happened to Sammy Sosa‘s skin?
During an interview this week on ESPN, Sosa was wearing a bright pink hat, and Twitter sat up and took notice of the fact that his skin tone matched that of the hat.
The comparisons abounded, from raw chicken to invisible man to the Pink Panther.
The 48-year-old former baseball pro hit 609 career home runs and won the 1998 NL MVP Award with the Cubs before he retired in 2007.

It’s sad that the emotional pain Sammy Sosa feels about being black is so sharp he was willing to endure bleaching himself pink.
