Birthday: Ron Santo

Born February 25, 1940 in Seattle Washington, Ron Santo would become one of the greatest baseball players to ever wear a Chicgo Cubs uniform. As the thirdbaseman for the Cubs from 1960 through 1973 Santo hit 342 Home Runs and and won 5 Gold Gloves. His best season was 1964 in which he batted .312 with 33 Doubles, 13 Triples, 30 Home Runs and 114 Runs Batted In.

Upon his retirement from playing baseball Santo moved into the broadcast booth covering the Cubs on radio - a position he still holds today. However, after being diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 18, Santo has lost the lower half of both of his legs. He continues to travel with the team as well as fighting for a cure for diabetes.

If Ron Santo died today he would be worth 35 points for Izzy.
