Cubs’ David Ross Apologizes for Flipping ‘Double Birds’ to Joc Pederson

When the Cubs opened their four-game series against the Giants on Thursday, Chicago manager David Ross made sure to give his former player Joc Pederson a warm hello.

Ross threw up both hands and gave the Giants outfielder a double bird, putting up two middle fingers in his direction.

Unfortunately for Ross, his joking act was caught on camera, and it quickly became a meme all over social media.

Before any reporters could ask a question at his pre-game Friday press conference, Ross made sure to address his double bird and apologize for his action.
