On Tuesday, Carlos Zambrano took the blame for letting the city of Chicago and the Cubs down during his lengthy tenure with the team.
The right-hander left Chicago's clubhouse in a rage last August, effectively ending his career with the Cubs.
He was traded to the Marlins in the offseason.
"I apologize for anything that I did," Zambrano said. "The only thing I wanted to do in Chicago is win, and once again, I apologize to the Cub fans and the people here that treated me good. They deserve an apology."
He was a member of the Cubs for 10 years and the team is playing all but $2 million of Zambrano's $18 million dollar 2012 salary.
Returning to Wrigley Field for the first time since he left the team on Aug. 10, 2011, was very emotional for him
"When I got to the light between Addison and Clark, I saw Wrigley Field and I said to myself 'I can't believe it.'" Zambrano said.
"People welcomed me from the office and from the team with a hug, and it was pretty emotional."
