I’ve only been following Major League Baseball with any kind of close interest for the last few years. It started really with the Sosa/McGuire home run chase in 1998 (which in hindsight was likely a steroid fueled cheat), and has grown year by year as we follow the Cubs and see them when we can. This season, they sucked. And their win in today’s season-ender put them securely in last place in their division, without even the lowly Pirates to look down upon.
Yup, the Cubs really stunk it up this year. But at least they we’re not 100-game losers like the Royals!
