1. Only fitting, that the final member of the 2016 World Series team pitched to a standing ovation. Kyle is a class act, and I hope he can continue pitching next year (not for the Cubs).

2. Yo

3. We will miss you, professer 🙁

4. 😢

7. Thank you Kyle Hendricks, for your sportsmanship.

8. Cubs Win!!! Cubs Win!!! Cubs Win!!! Go Cubbies Go!!! 💙🐻💙

9. As a former short stop I really appreciate dansby Swansons foot work & ability to make tough plays. He is a great infielder

10. Great season Cubs, will miss Prof. Hendricks 🎉

11. That was a great play by Swanson to end the game. I hope by some miracle Kyle returns next year.

12. Great career, kyle.

13. I still think Hendricks could be help in bullpen

14. We’ll never forget you, professor 🥲

15. Thank you Professor. A Cub 4 Life

16. The Cubs Professor doing what he does…HOWEVER the REDS downfall has always been their poor pitching staff out of the pen
    If they get a great starter and they do well and keep a game close or scoreless, in comes the pen pitcher and the game is gave away. A scenario we see game after game, year after year and no manager change can fix that, it takes ownership willing to pay for Great pitchers and a desire to be a winning competitive team, which the Reds have not been for a long while now, just MLB's farm club. Develop great players and trade them off that is the REDS Forte

17. Kinda fitting that Kyle's first and "last" Cubs starts came against the Reds.

18. This was a Dansby Swanson game. GG Cubs

19. Nothin like winning your last game in a Cubs uniform. You’re going out on your own terms with a win. Thanks for all the memories and being a World Series champion. No regrets here. Enjoy retirement or whom ever you might play for next year. You’re a winner in my book.

20. Hendricks is my favorite pitcher of all time. He's so calm all the time plus a perfectionist an smooth. I never want to see him go.😢😮😢❤… Your great kyle!!

21. Vintage game by Hendricks. Good to see him finish strong after the worst season of his career, due to nagging injuries that began two years ago. Even if he doesn't hang 'em up, he will be a lifetime Cub. He came up with the Cubbies, showing a lot of promise his rookie year, despite not being an overly hyped prospect. He was our most consistent pitcher from 2015 through 2021, only missing significant time in '17. He pitched far better than his numbers showed in 2015, not missing a start and eating innings for a young, surprising team. Was reliable and a mature presence through the championship year, saving his best for the playoffs (1.42 ERA in 5 postseason starts during that run). Through it all: the meteoric rise of the teams young core; Arrieta being the best pitcher in baseball in the last half of '15 and first half of '16; the injuries to the same core that won it all, crippling a chance to repeat; a global pandemic; seeing the entire core (except Contreras) getting traded for the next group; and, now, the up and coming core of this squad- through it all, The Professor has been there. Taking the ball every 5 days and giving us solid baseball, without big headlines, without electric stuff, without making a scene. Just a skinny, lanky guy with plus control and a sneaky good changeup, keeping hitters off balance and eating up innings.
    Thank you, Kyle. You will always be a Cub, a champion, and one of my favorite players in nearly 50 years of being a fan. 🫡💚
    Go Cubs, Go!!

22. Kyle Hendricks only needs one uniform for a career, Chicago. I don't care if it was an off year. Resign the man. Let him retire where he deserves to retire. Let the Professor stay home if he wants to come back!!!

23. MBL needs to investigate the Cinncinati Reds organization. Something phony is going on! The owners are miss handling this team in every year. They don’t care about winning anymore!!! That is suspicious when you want to win championships titiles!

24. Hendricks will remain on North side. Owner has said publicly he wants Hendricks to retire a Cub!!

25. Kyle's my favorite Cubs pitcher. Started a combined no-hitter a couple years ago on my birthday! In any case, appreciate his cerebral approach and his sportsmanship. Had a tough year and his endurance is down but he could possibly be useful somewhere and turn things around. He actually has gotten really bad run support in the last two years and, at times, really bad defensive support as well. So his numbers really should be a bit better. Good luck Kyle!

26. Are these highlights AI-generated lately? They seem oddly disjointed.

28. Kyle Hendricks is one of my favorite players for the Cubs I am sad he retired but he was the best pitcher thank you professor for everything 💙

29. So thankful that MLB had the Radio broadcast for the Professor's sendoff as he exited the mound, not a lot of moments get called by Pat on the Highlight reels on here.

30. Wow – great comments all on here. Thank you Professor! Yet another pitching clinic/gem in front of the Wrigley faithful. Truly a Forever Cub! ❤🎉

31. The Chicago Cubs are 83-78🔵🔴⚪️🐻

32. Thank you for everything kyle

33. Cubs win last series of the season… They'll get better next season.

34. What a great game the Cubs had! It's a bummer that we might not see Kyle Hendricks in a Cubs uniform again, but I wish him the best of luck next year if he doesn't stay.

35. Was able to watch Hendricks pitch in person game 2 of the NLDS in 2016 the WS year

36. The Cubs let him go, the Owner and General Manager should be fired. Kyle's the perfect person to start a rotation around. No way they're going to let him leave.

37. Took my three boys, ages 9, 7, and 5, to this game today. It was an awesome day! Thank you, Kyle!!

38. The games may be meaningless now, but Suzuki is simply proving, right up until the season ends, that he’s the Cubs’ best hitter.👏
