Cubs Birthday Tweet of the Week

I post one every day on Twitter. This week, this is my favorite one.

Born OTD in 1887, Heinie Zimmerman. He nearly won the Triple Crown in 1912–but he was a butcher at SS/3B and a troublemaker. In 1908 he threw a bottle of ammonia at a teammate, nearly blinding him. He later worked in a speakeasy with gangster Dutch Schultz #EveryCubEver pic.twitter.com/6u8yd6lhzs
