R.I.P Ron Santo

Ron Santo died this morning due to complications of bladder cancer. The longtime Chicago announcer and Cub great never lived to see himself inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame, despite coming close several times. The former All-Star third baseman was beloved by Cubs fans and he never hid his admiration for the team. Below is a example of his strong Cub loyalty while announcing a game where the Phillies tie the game up in the 9th. Santo was 70 years old.
