I lived downstate (central Illinois) at about the Mason Dixon line, where the imaginary divide of Cubs and Cards fans exists.
Cubbies up 2-0, bottom of the first... nobody out- man on third in scoring position. Holy Cow!
Cousin Sally and I knew never to watch. They always did well till we watched. Our dads called us the “old goats”. Both Sal and I liked the soxs although we always watched the Cubbies if they had a good season Just one of those fun things we did with our dads
Congrats to the Cubbies, that was really fun to watch and holy cow, that Theo is quite the baseball genius. I was excited for the fans, it was great to see!
