You couldn’t have scripted a better ending to Ross’ career. The life-long backup who was playing in his last game belted a home run in his last at-bat off the best reliever in the game which helped the Cubs break the longest drought in professional sports history.

Absolutely no better way to end a career then being carried off the field.
