Cubs historical sleuthing: Ryne Sandberg edition

Al Yellon created Bleed Cubbie Blue and has been its managing editor since 2005. He's also written three books about the Cubs, the latest is "Chicago Cubs Firsts."

I thought, with the news of Cubs Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg battling cancer again breaking earlier this week, that this would be the perfect time to present a photo of him requiring sleuthing.

Here, Sandberg is sliding into second base, which is covered by Lou Whitaker, who should also be in the Hall, though that’s a discussion for another time. There’s bunting on the walls of the stadium.
