PHOTOS! Here again are pictures of Sammy Sosa’s face and skin then and now. Sammy Sosa’s eye color, skin, face and even hair are being debated Saturday online as the baseball great showed up Wednesday in Las Vegas looking different than when he entered the Majors in 1989.

Is the change more than just age?

Sosa is from San Pedro De Macoris in the Dominican Republic and in 1998 won the National League Most Valuable Player. But with even Yahoo News suggesting Sosa is now sporting green contacts, the question is … what has happened, if anything?

Following Sosa’s 1998 MVP award, Sosa won the ESPY Humanitarian of the Year honor. He would also earn the Roberto Clemente Award and the National League Hank Aaron Award the next year. In his 18 years, Sammy Sosa would earn 609 homeruns and 1667 RBIs.

But when Sosa appeared in Las Vegas Wednesday night, to honor music legend Juan Gabriel (previously profiled on LALATE), batting stats weren’t the focus of the press - rather everything from Sosa’s eyes to to his skin. Is Sosa wearing green contacts? Yahoo News thinks they are fake green contacts. But beyond that, is something else going on?

No comment by Sosa to the reports.

You decide.
