After we finished talking to new #Cubs OF Carlos Gonzalez I asked if he knew any of the players on this team. Gonzalez said, “When I was in the dugout I told them this was my second as a Cub, the first was the 2016 All-Star game that was all Cubs.” @WBEZ

Michael Jordan's last #Bulls game in Utah & a 6th NBA title had an odd feeling. There was the usual celebration in the locker room. But it felt final, after post-game work, Dan Roan and his WGN crew cut down the net of MJ's last shot.I was given some of it. #LastDance

Here is my version on #Bulls Michael Jordan's 1st retirement, time with baseball and #NBA return. 1990, MJ was at old Comiskey Park and took batting practice, pitched in the bullpen and roamed the outfield before a game. This pic is from that day, note the uniform. #LastDance
