(Jim Riggleman, who went 374-419 as manager of the Cubs)? Which player has the most postseason hits and strikeouts in Cubs history (Kris Bryant, who has 35 hits and 52 strikeouts)? North Sider stars and managers past and present are represented, from Cap Anson to Ryne Sandberg, Ernie Banks to Anthony Rizzo, Fergie Jenkins to Jon Lester, Gabby Hartnett to David Ross, Frank Chance to Joe Maddon, and everyone in between.
