I grew up watching Ron Santo as the Cub 3rd baseman in the '60's. He was always my hero. Hard nosed and earned every dollar he was paid. As he got older, more details about his life emerged and another generation of Cub fans admired him, but not just for his playing career. I avoided this movie for decades because I did not think I could watch Ron as anything other than the lively, colorful man that he was in his playing days. This was a mistake. He became a hero to more people than ever, and not just for his ball playing efforts. He helped raise millions to fight the diabetes that made his playing career more difficult and shorter than it should have been. He died fairly young and my wife and I hung his jersey in our living room after shedding many tears during our mourning period. She had never even seen him play, but witnessed his charitable work and colorful broadcast career. Read full review

The man, the legend Ron Santos career in the field and in the booth. A fantastic tribute to one of the greatest players to don a Cubs jersey. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This DVD is a must have for any Cub fan. Been a fan all my life, listened to Pat and Ron broadcast as much as possible, saw Ron Santo play. Wonderful DVD, particularly if you grew up or lived/live in Chicago. A touching story of his life, trials and charitable efforts. Go Cubs Go! This is all the more valued since Ron's passing. The best 3rd baseman not in the Hall of Fame, an absolute embarrassment on Baseball's part.
Great!!!!!!!!!!
