That's right, actual sports reportage. Today a statue of third baseman Ron Santo will be unveiled at Wrigley Field. That's the Cubs' stadium. The Chicago Cubs. Santo was not only a respected ball player, he was a beloved commentator for 20 years. Santo provided color commentary which included many emotional reactions to what was happening on the field. Which endeared him to Cubs lovers - Ron Santo was a huge Cubs fan, no attempt at impartiality. That's what the play-by-play guy is for. Santo's statue will join three others at Wrigley Field, those of: Billy Williams, Ernie Banks, and Harry Caray. Ron Santo died December 02, 2010.
