On the Baseball Front: Got 'Dem Old Losing Blues



Chicago is noted for the blues genre of music and ouyr baseball teams are sure living up to the reputation.Sad to hear that the Chicago Cubs are stopping their 90-year involvement with WGN Radio and also their long commitment with WGN TV.  I reckon old Jack Brickhouse is turning over in his grave.

WGN did have a chance to match the CBS radio offer, but chose not to because they have been losing money because of how poor the Cubs have played the last so-many years.

And, speaking of losing, this past Monday night was especially bad with both the Cubs and Sox losing in the 9th inning.  Baltimore Orioles had a walk-off three-run homer to beat the Sox 6-4.  The Cubs went into the 9th tied 1-1, but gave a run, then the opposing team hit a grand slam and they lost 6-1.

And, again speaking of losing, not many cities can claim to have one last-place team, but, not Chicago!  We have TWO, count 'em, TWO LAST PLACE teams.  The good old Cubs and good old Sox.
