For Cubs’ Dansby Swanson, wife Mallory’s goal for U.S. is golden moment

Associated Press  

CHICAGO — Dansby Swanson wore his wife’s jersey and a grin wide enough to stretch from Chicago to Paris after the U.S. women’s national team beat Brazil for the Olympic gold medal on Saturday. “Definitely let out some fist pumps and screams, got up off the couch and then right back into the same spot,” he said prior to the Cubs’ game against the crosstown White Sox. As for why he wasn’t in Paris, Dansby Swanson said his wife told him not to ask for a few days off because of his responsibilities to the team. A two-time All-Star and two-time Gold Glove winner, Dansby Swanson knows what it’s like to win a sport’s top prize.
