The Chicago Cubs are presenting Steve Bartman with a World Series ring:
The Cubs say they “hope this provides closure on an unfortunate chapter” and Bartman “continues to be fully embraced by this organization.”
Bartman released a statement saying he is “deeply moved and sincerely grateful.” He praised team owners the Ricketts family and management, and called the ring a reminder of “how we should treat each other in today’s society.”
The Cubs should have Dusty Baker present the ring, since Bartman deflected criticism from Baker for not having a reliever ready when Mark Prior tired.
