Despite tearing two knee ligaments in his second game of the season, Kyle Schwarber is still contributing for the Chicago Cubs, as the recovering 23-year-old ably narrated the hype video released not long after his club clinched its first NL Central title since 2008 on Thursday night.
"This is the fabric that brings an entire nation together," Schwarber begins, displaying the W flag that will surely brand the Cubs' postseason run. "It says to the world, we will never lose faith. We believe in this team."

David Ross, the 39-year-old catcher affectionately known in the Cubs' clubhouse as "Grandpa Rossy", was feeling the video early Friday morning (after the San Francisco Giants mathematically eliminated the St. Louis Cardinals from contending with Chicago for the division crown).
That's right Schwarb's!! https://t.co/BNTaDBnILF
