If you didn’t know who David Bote was before Sunday night’s Cubs-Nationals game, you probably do now.
The unthinkable happened Sunday night when the Cubs third basemen hit a pinch-hit, two-strike walk-off grand slam at Wrigley Field, sinking the Nationals 4-3.
Bote has reached household name status with Cubs faithful; he made the media rounds Monday morning, speaking with 670 The Score and ESPN-1000 about his life before and after his historic night.
He has seen time between the big leagues and Triple-A this season. In fact, his Ford Escape is still parked in his apartment complex in Des Moines with half of his family’s stuff packed inside.
