Ex-Cub Adam Greenberg puts positive spin on one of baseball's cruelest tales

Posted May 12, 2017
Adam Greenberg (UNC 2000-02) got hit squarely in the head by a fastball on the first pitch he saw in the big leagues. The errant delivery, which caused concussion and vertigo symptoms lasting a couple years, effectively ended Greenberg's MLB career. Prior to a recent speaking appearance in Chicago, Greenberg said the Cubs' success only served to stir up his thoughts of what might have been. (Chicago Tribune)
