During Day 2 of the Chicago Cubs convention, Willson Contreras brought the house down with the story of the short conversation he had with Jon Lester when the lefty picked off Tommy Pham in 2017.
You’ll remember that highlight being more hilarious because of the St. Louis Cardinals announcers.

A good laugh had by all, but Willson wasn’t done. Here’s how he signed a fan’s bat later on.
