Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa faces disciplinary action after cork found in a bat. MLB officials including Bob Watson met Cubs leaders at Wrigley Field as a ruling could come within days. Sosa, defending the incident as a one-time mistake, prepares to appeal amid upcoming Yankees series and Clemens 300th-win bid.

Cincinnati laments missing Clemens on 300th win attempt
The Cincinnati crowd hoped to see Roger Clemens reach his 300th victory against the Reds, but he bypassed Great American Ball Park during his Yankees visit. Notes from Austin Kearns and Sean Casey reflect admiration for Clemens and the rarity of 300 wins, with Clemens scheduled to start Saturday at Wrigley Field. Family friends traveled to Detroit for his next shot, while Yankees officials rearranged travel plans. Sammy Sosa’s 500th homer earlier in the Reds’ season is mentioned as a contrasting historic moment.

Bere to have shoulder surgery ends season with Indians
Denver Cleveland Indians pitcher Jason Bere will undergo shoulder surgery and is expected to miss the rest of the season. Team doctor Mark Schickendantz found further rotator cuff fraying after tests. Bere went 1-10 with the Cubs last year before signing with Cleveland as a free agent and missed six weeks this season due to shoulder problems. He lasted one inning in his last start on May 27 against Detroit.
