Cubs great Ryne Sandberg set a series of goals when he was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer this past winter. He wanted to throw out a first pitch at Wrigley Field, and he wanted to attend his statue dedication on the 40th anniversary of the “Sandberg Game.”
The Hall of Famer checked off the first item at the home opener in April. And he achieved the second on Sunday, as the Cubs unveiled the latest addition to Statue Row on Gallagher Way.
“This was a guarantee for me,” Sandberg said after the ceremony.
