Where there was slugger Ernie Banks, there was hope. The legacy of the sports Hall of Famer and two-time MVP will live on through memories of what he meant to the sport of baseball and the culture.
In JET fashion, we take a look back at archival images of our beloved, “Mr. Cub.”
Enjoy and feel free to share your memories of Ernie Banks in the comments!
