Sosa makes appeal, awaits decision

Sosa makes appeal,awaits decision
Sammy Sosa is done talking. All he can do now is wait.
Sosa on Tuesday appealed his eight-game suspension for using a corked bat. After speaking for about an hour with Bob DuPuy, baseball's chief operating officer, Sosa could only hope for the best.
"I'm waiting for the decision they're going to make. Whatever punishment they're going to do, I accept it," he said.
A decision from Major League Baseball could come as soon as today.
Sosa made a short statement to the media Tuesday in Baltimore, then exited without taking questions. Cubs officials said Sosa would not speak with reporters again during a three-game series with the Baltimore Orioles that concludes Thursday.
Asked when a decision would be rendered, DuPuy replied, "As soon as I get to it."
