David Ross pranked on ESPN by Rick Sutcliffe during mid-broadcast restroom break

When you gotta go, you gotta go. For Cubs manager David Ross, such a moment came at an inconvenient time during his stint as an ESPN broadcaster.

ESPN’s Jon “Boog” Sciambi recently hopped on “The Compound,” a podcast hosted by Cubs Ian Happ, Nico Hoerner, Dakota Mekkes and Zack Short. Sciambi recalled a time where Ross got up to use the restroom during a commercial break of a Red Sox-Phillies entering the 10th inning.

The 10th already started by the time Ross returned to the booth, giving Cubs legend Rick Sutcliffe — the third member of broadcast team — a chance to mess with him.
