Go Cubbies!! Lifelong fan here and I am 64. It’s been a long time coming. I think it’s all but over, we have more talent plus I think someone put a curse on Kershaw.
They haven’t won a WS GAME since 1908. If they don’t win tonight look for 1945 again.
I was only 8 years old when our Little League team went there for a day game of course.
In those days, fans could enter the park at 10am and watch infield practice and batting practice. We all lined up on the 3rd base wall and got autographs. Randy Hundley “9” signed my Gil Hodges’s model first baseman’s mitt.
I was a catcher from then on and played that position until I was 21 and aged out of Legion ball.
