CHICAGO — Chicago Cubs catcher David Ross posed for a selfie Friday in front of a multitude of roaring fans in the city’s Grant Park during a rally honoring the club’s first World Series title in 108 years.
Ross and the other players sang “Go Cubs Go” from the stage along with the blissed-out crowd. “It happened, baby. It happened!” proclaimed infielder Anthony Rizzo to adoring cheers.
Team manager Joe Maddon — wearing a stocking cap, sunglasses and a jersey over a “We didn’t suck” T-shirt — looked out over a sea of blue.
