About this episode
Frank Schwindel stops by the Cubs Weekly Podcast to share what he's been up to the last 2 years since he left Chicago and how his baseball career has panned out. Schwindel reflects back on his incredible run in the final 2 months of the 2021 season, when he batted .342 and led the majors in hits. What clicked in that moment to put together such an amazing stretch? How much fun was that season and what was it like replacing a Cubs legend in Anthony Rizzo? Plus, Schwindel explains interactions with Cubs fans - both then and now - while sharing some of his favorite moments during his time in Chicago. Meanwhile, Tony Andracki and Andy Martínez discuss how the Cubs first base position has evolved since Schwindel's tenure.
