@cubs@dan_bernstein What say you about this racist fan flashing a white power sign behind Mr. Glanville at tonight's game? pic.twitter.com/zR7DqYWgQv "The incident last night is truly disgusting. It gave me shivers to watch that, to see that take place at Wrigley Field. Appropriately, we've made clear how egregious and unacceptable that behavior is, and there's no place for that in society, in baseball, and Wrigley Field. The person responsible for that gesture will never be welcomed back at Wrigley Field."
