CHICAGO The statues around Wrigley Field tell the story of Cubs baseball.Theres one of Harry Caray, holding out his microphone at the corner of Waveland and Sheffield, and you can almost hear him singing "Take Me Out Jonathan Bullard Jersey to the Ballgame" as he leans out of the pre s box. Billy Williams and Ron Santo, two Hall of Famers, have their statues on the corner of Sheffield and Addison.MORE: Ernie Banks, the greatest Cub of them all, has his statue near the corner of Clark and Addison. I only talked with Banks a couple times in phone interviews, but they were probably my favorite interviews of all time. The man could light up a room with his voice and personality. Yeah, even when talking on the phone. He was that special.With the Cubs upthree games to twoheading into Game 6 of the best-of-seven NLCS on Saturday, I stopped by Ernies statue. I always do when Im at Wrigley.gue sing the great Ernie Banks would probably just rather play one this time ... Ryan Fagan (@ Nick Kwiatkoski Jersey ryanfagan) After the game, the 5-0 win by the Cubs that , I had the chance to speak with Williams, the only one of that group of statue-worthy Cubs still with us. He was thinking about Banks and Santo, too.FAGAN: Oh, yeah. I think about those guys all the time, Williams, 78, told me. I started off with Ronnie in Double-A baseball, this is 1959, and of course Ernie was up here hitting all the home runs. John Holland (the Cubs' general manager) brought us up here and said, Why Tom Waddle Jersey dont you come up here and help Ernie hit some home runs? So we did. Its been great.Banks (512 homers), Williams (392) and Santo (337) rank 2-3-4 on the Cubs all-time home-run list. You often think about them, guys who were here a long time and they wanted to see this kind of thing happen, you know, going to the World Series, Williams said. Its been 108 years (since Cody Whitehair Jersey the Cubs have won the Series).SPECTOR: Its hard to think about Banks and Williams and Santo without thinking about the disappointment of that trio of all-time greats never reaching the playoffs. Too often, the pitching just wasnt there. And seasons like 1969, when they looked bound for the playoffs only to be caught and pa sed by the red-hot Mets, only added to the frustration.Thats Kyle Fuller Jersey why Williams couldnt help but revel in the moment Saturday night.MORE: Standing here on this field, standing on this sacred ground, celebrating tonight, its a great feeling, he said. I cant believe it. Im standing here on the field and all of a sudden were in the World Series. Man, Im telling you, this is really, really something.But like a true baseball player, Williams was already looking forward.MORE: This is icing on the cake. I also say weve got another hill to climb, he said. Were going to Cleveland, we want to continue to play good baseball.
