Former Diamond Heel, big leaguer (for a pitch) Adam Greenberg throws out first pitch at Cubs game
Posted Jul 10, 2017
Twelve years ago today, Guilford’s Adam Greenberg has called up to the big leagues by the Chicago Cubs. What a ride he went on–he was hit in the head in his very first at bat. Greenberg was never the same, baseball wise, again. On Friday, the World Series champion Cubs welcomed him to Wrigley Field.
