Home Sweet Stinging Defeat

The official last stop on the trip was Yankee, where we saw the Yanks complete their sweep of the hapless and sinking Cubbies. Biggest and best surprise of the game was that Cubs fans represented in force: I'd say almost 25% of attendees were sporting Cubs gear of some sort (that includes a guy on our subway car in a Julian Tavarez jersey, believe it or not) for the northsiders' first visit to Yankee since 1938. Most predictable series of events happened on the field, where the Cubs played like a bunch of sick nuns. Oh, well. Another century won't kill us, except literally. - JF
