Chicago Cubs: Ross puts Cubs on his back in final home game

Chicago Cubs (99-56) fans gave David Ross a night to remember in his final home game. He walked up to a standing ovation in each of his at-bats, and cranked his tenth home run of the year, giving the Cubs a 1-0 lead they wouldn’t relinquish.

In his second year as a Cub, Ross is putting together his best offensive season since 2012 when he was in Atlanta. He’s slashing .230/.435/.773 in 200 plate appearances and recorded the third highest RBI total of his career (32) even though he split playing time with Miguel Montero and Willson Contreras.
