Slugger Sammy Sosa and first baseman Derrek Lee will be inducted into the Chicago Cubs Hall of Fame this summer, the team announced Friday at the annual Cubs Convention.

Former Cubs star Sammy Sosa was elected to the team's Hall of Fame along with former first baseman Derrek Lee.

The Chicago Cubs welcomed Sammy Sosa back at the Cubs Convention on Friday after he apologized last month. But the retired slugger failed to offer clarity on his “mistakes.”

The Chicago Cubs opened the door for one of their greatest stars to return to the franchise in 2024. In 2025, they'll honor him like the legend he is.

Cubs legend Sammy Sosa hadn’t specified which “mistakes” he was apologizing for in the statement he issued last month, the one that paved the way for reconciliation between the former face of the franchise and team ownership. When asked Friday if he was referring to the use of performance-enhancing drugs, he said “No, no.”

Chicago Cubs Executive Chairman Tom Ricketts announced at tonight’s Cubs Convention Opening Ceremony that former Cubs first baseman Derrek Lee and outfielder Sammy Sosa will be inducted into the Cubs Hall of Fame this year.

A month after Sammy Sosa released an apology letter regarding "mistakes" he made during his MLB career, the Chicago Cubs announced that the slugger will enter the team's Hall of Fame this summer along with former first baseman Derrek Lee.
