We could all use a little positivity right now. And just as a certain Number 23 did for the Cubs in 1982, Episode Number 23 came along at just the right time.

Today is all about celebrating Ryne Sandberg, my favorite Cub and the greatest second baseman I've ever seen. Joining me in this tribute to all things Ryno are Sara Sanchez and Andi Cruz Vanecek from the Cuppa Cubbie Blue podcast. Naturally, we fanboy/fangirl out over The Sandberg Game, that sublime day when Ryno simultaneously vanquished the Cardinals, the greatest closer of the 1980s, and Cub demons. We also discuss the consistent excellence of Sandberg's defense, the surprising eloquence of his Hall of Fame speech, and the special moment when he represented the Cubs at Pride.

Bruce Sutter should probably skip this one. The rest of you will love it.
