Fresh off huge wins, David Ross and Simone Biles try for dancing glory

"Grandpa Rossy," fresh off a World Series win for the Chicago Cubs, is dusting off his dancing shoes.

Former Red Sox and Cubs catcher David Ross, who retired after Chicago won the World Series in 2016, will participate in Season 24 of "Dancing With the Stars" on ABC. The show premieres at 8 p.m. ET on March 20.

Ross will dance with Lindsay Arnold, who has partnered with athletes on the show before. She danced with boxer Victor Ortiz in Season 16 of the show, and both were knocked out in Week 6. But it'll be the first time a baseball player has ever competed on the show.
