RIP Ryno

  1. One of the best. Forever a Cub. Drink one with Harry when ya see him.

  2. I met him in 2016 at Miller Park when I sat right behind him for an entire game. Great guy and spent most of the game talking with everyone around him.

  3. Fuck cancer. Long live my first baseball hero. The reason I wanted to play infield, wear #23 and get those flip-down sunglasses.

  4. Fucking hell. Ryno was my favorite Cub growing up. I met him in person too and nicest guy.

  5. Ryne was an amazing player and a great person.

    I know it may not speak to everyone, but his famous quotation always spoke to me about the value of teamwork:

    > Hit a home run – put your head down, drop the bat, run around the bases, because the name on the front is more – a lot more important than the name on the back.

    Ryno was a genuine class act.

  6. Some of best times I ever had was watching the Boys of Zimmer, especially the Rhino and the Hawk. Such a sad day.

  7. Brewers fan, coming in peace.

    Ryne Sandberg was my favorite player growing up. My grandpa and dad were both Cubs fans so I grew up watching WGN and the Cubbies.

    Honestly, until Sal Frelick this year, Sandberg was my favorite player through all these years — and honestly, he probably still is.

    I’m absolutely heartbroken. šŸ™

  8. I knew it was bad when everyone started showing up in 23 jerseys the last two weeks. RIP Ryno.
