“This morning I have sent a resolution to the desk commending Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa for a remarkable baseball season. I suspect that many of our colleagues in the Senate, and the entire Nation, for that matter, were focused on that last couple of weeks, the contest between those two individuals. I think, at least from my perspective as I watched events unfold, there were times people would come up to me and ask, Who do you want to win? My reaction was--like, I suspect, many others'--it would have been great if it was a tie. The way the two individuals interacted with each other and their attitude about the game were just, I think, a remarkable statement.”
