Some
of the finest gentlemen to ever don baseball
uniforms have played for the Chicago
Cubs at Wrigley Field. Wrigley
Field, Chicago will always be the home
of guys like Mr. Baseball, Ernie Banks.
His name stands alone in the annals of
Chicago Cub baseball
history, but players like the indomitable
Ron Santo, Billy Williams, Sammy Sosa,
Ferguson Jenkins, Kenny Holtzman, Ryne
Sandberg and Andre Dawson join him. When
an outfield ball finds its way to the
ivy-strewn walls, you never know what’s
going to happen at Wrigley Field. Find

The Chicago Cubs are
pinning their hopes for 2007, on prospects
like Casey McGehee. The 24-year-old third
baseman tore up winter league baseball
in Mexico, with a 16 game hitting streak,
and a 10-16 run during his off-season
effort, his batting average topping out
at .350, and he finished at .300. McGehee
hopes the Wrigley Field faithful can watch
him repeat some similar feats this summer,
and throughout the 2007 season.
In the peculiar ecosystem and sub-culture
of Cubs fans, nourished
by the life and spirit that announcer
Harry Carey breathed into it, sadists
and masochists sing in perfect harmony
and exist in a unique, symbiotic relationship
within the walls of Wrigley Field and
wherever fans cheer the Chicago
Cubs. Buy
