Kyle Schwarber: If Cubs don’t want video board home run ball, ‘I’ll take it’

SHARE Kyle Schwarber: If Cubs don’t want video board home run ball, ‘I’ll take it’

Second-year slugger Kyle Schwarber is aware the Cubs have removed from his playoff home run ball from the plexiglass atop the right field video board.

But he doesn’t know any more than most about where that decisive Game 4 home run ball from the playoff clincher over the Cardinals is or where it’ll wind up.

“I haven’t been consulted yet,” he said Wednesday with a grin during a Cubs Caravan stop. “I’m sure that someone will find me at some point and talk to me about it. I’m not too concerned about it.”

But …

“If they don’t want to do anything with it,” he said, “I’ll take it, definitely. Definitely.”
