1977 Cubs

The '77 Cubs was one of the first that I really followed, so I remember more about that team than from other years.

This article mentioned one of my favorite games. I do with they'd air this one on ESPN Classics.

"On July 28 at Wrigley, the Cubs beat Cincinnati 16-15 in 13 innings in one of the city's great slugfests."

For a few months that year with the Cubs and Sox in first place, fans were wild with the prospect of a World Series showdown

I'm hoping that ESPN Classics will air that 16-15 game from 1977 vs. the Reds.

I'd love to see that one again.

Here is the box score from that game. It is an interesting one.
