+1. One of the best Cubs to ever play the game and the best Cubs fan ever. It won't be the same listening to a radio broadcast on WGN.

+2 not a cub fan myself, but a classic part of the broadcast. Really brought a fan perspective to the game.

I've been a Cubs fan all my life, and actually got to see Ron Santo play. He loved his team, and the game of Baseball, and it showed every time ran onto the field or he got behind the microphone to announce a game. The man wanted so badly to get into the Hall of Fame. Nine Time All Star player, Five Golden Gloves, A life time Fielding average of .954. Guess he'll make it next year.

He's now in the Hall of Fame that counts! I'm not a Cubs fan, but he always played the game as it should be played!
