I grew up spending Summer's with my Grandma in Iowa watching Cubs games with her on WGN. First baseball game I ever went to was an Iowa Cubs game and this player named Tuffy Rhodes was absolutely amazing in that game. Next season he went 4-4 with 3 home runs off a pitcher named Dwight Gooden for his Cubs debut and I was hooked.
My grandma turned me into a baseball fan and last night was the first time in 10 years it felt like she was actually on the couch watching with me. So many emotions. 108 years is a damn long time, but I'd wait that long again if that's what it takes to experience that feeling.
Go Cubs Go!!!
