Why is this date different? Twenty years ago the lights went on at Wrigley Field!
Okay I am a Cub fan and maybe nobody else remembered or cares but it was a dawning of new look and feel to the game of baseball in Chicago. But as normal the purists whined the new wave cheered and the Cubs chugged on. One hundred years ago was the last time the Cubs won the World Series. Hummm 100 years and 20 years is there a connection? Could this be the year for the faithful of the “Friendly Confines”? I’ll wait and see I have been a Cubbie fan for a long time and this might just be “The Year”.
