This week marks 10 years since the Chicago Cubs lost an icon in Ron Santo.
It was right around midnight on December 2, 2010 when Chicago Cubs legend Ron Santo passed away in Scottsdale, Arizona due to complications of bladder cancer and a longtime battle with diabetes. Santo was 70 years old. The fanbase awoke on that Friday morning to the very sad news, a moment that is hard to believe was now a decade ago.
When Santo passed, he had still not been inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, a moment he himself and millions of Cubs fans had waited to see for decades.
