CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs unveiled a statue of six time 20-game winner and Hall of Fame pitcher Ferguson Jenkins during a ceremony outside of Wrigley Field Friday morning.
Jenkins, 79, was in attendance with family as the sculpture was unveiled next to those of other former great Cubs.
"The statue is sitting beside my fellow teammates, Ernie (Banks), Billy (Williams) and Ronnie (Santo)," Jenkins said during the ceremony. "Believe me, I'm humbled."
The sculptures are part of a new "statue row," which resides just outside the third base gates.
Jenkins played for the Cubs from 1966-73, and then again from 1982-83.
