Congrats Roger and your beloved Cubbies

[My Name Is Kate]

I'm a long-suffering Cubs fan since back in the early 1970s when I used to listen to their afternoon games on WGN radio (always afternoon games because Wrigley Field had no lights for night games back then). I finally gave up on following the team because it seemed like such an exercise in futility, but in the last few weeks my interest was re-ignited. I have to admit that I did not think the Cubs would beat the Giants or the Dodgers, and I thought even less that they would beat the Indians after being down 3 games to 1. I'm so glad I was wrong, but I'm still stressed out from some of the managerial moves made in the last two games (especially the last game) that almost handed the title to the Indians. Thank God for the rain delay and Jason Heyward for taking the initiative to call a meeting so the team could regroup. Too bad Ron Santo couldn't have been here. He was my favorite player.
