Happy 95th birthday to #MrCub #ErnieBanks. One of the best #MLB players to never win the World Series. He is however in the 500 Home Run Club and did it cleanly too.

As some may know, I have a massive collection of #Cubs item, between bobbleheads, signed balls, random swag, and thousands of pins, it's admittedly a bit ridiculous.
