Zobrist named 'Grand Marshal' of his hometown's holiday parade

The celebrations haven't stopped yet for World Series MVP Ben Zobrist, but now they've taken on a holiday flair.

The Chicago Cubs utility man and Franklin, Tenn. resident participated in the city's holiday parade on Saturday.

Not per tradition, this year's event was deemed "Ben Zobrist Day" by the mayor of Franklin, and Zobrist was named the Grand Marshal of the parade.
