Ron Santo Passes

Ron Santo

Long time Cubs' third baseman, broadcaster and all around nice guy, Ron Santo died yesterday. He was 70. Listening to Ron and Pat Hughes on the radio was a joy. Ron did the color. Where his description may lack from time to time, his emotion was always there.

Phil Rogers who knew the man and who writes better than I do, wrote a very nice story, this morning. Check it out here.

I'm not a Cubs fan. I am a Ron Santo fan.
