ATLANTA (AP) -- Sammy Sosa missed his third straight game Sunday because of a family emergency but still plans to play in Tuesday's All-Star game.

A Cubs spokesman said Sosa's wife injured her hand in a household accident and was scheduled to have surgery Monday.

"He plans to travel up to Milwaukee on Monday night," team spokesman Chuck Wasserstrom said. In 83 games this season, Sosa has 28 home runs and 58 RBIs. He's batting .307.
