Seems like the Cubs are breaking their curse one step at a time.

87 years ago tomorrow, this happened;

Quote:
In the 1929 miracle comeback, the Cubs were leading, 8-0, after 7 1/2 innings. One out, two lost balls in the sun and 13 batters later, the Cubs found themselves trailing, 10-8. The next two hitters struck out, but the damage was done. Athletics ace Lefty Grove tossed two innings of perfect relief to clinch the improbable victory, and two days later, the A's beat the Cubs, 3-2, to win the championship.
Baseball can be so awesome and tonights game shows why.
