About this product

Product Information

The baseball documentary THIS OLD CUB chronicles the life and times of beloved Chicago Cubs third baseman and broadcaster Ron Santo, and was directed by Santo's son Jeff. Despite being diagnosed with a particularly dangerous form of diabetes as a child, Santo grew up to become one of the mainstays of the Cubs teams in the 1960s and early '70s. After his playing career, he became a fan favorite broadcaster for the team. But during both his years on the field and afterwards, he struggled to keep his diabetes under control, until finally it required both of his legs to be amputated. Combining footage of Santo in his playing days, in the broadcast booth, and during his medical difficulties with interviews with his baseball contemporaries and celebrity Cubs fans, THIS OLD CUB is an in-depth portrait that goes beyond the myth making of typical sports documentaries.

  • We need more heroes like Ron Santo.

    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 ...
