The slugger has yet to make any comments about the revelation that he tested positive for performance enhancing drugs in 2003, but the US Congress sure has a lot to say. According to Fox Sports, a congressional committee will look into whether or not Sosa's denial during a 2005 Congressional hearing can be defined as perjury. The chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, Democratic Rep. Edolphus Towns of New York, says that the committee takes seriously suggestions that a witness had been misleading. Ryan Konerko and Aramis Ramirez have both come out in defense of their friend and former teammate. Konerko has stated that he would wait until Sosa spoke on the matter before expressing an opinion. He said either the anonymous source should come forward or Sosa should admit to his drug use before he believes the accusations. Ramirez said that he doesn't believe Sosa did anything wrong.
