Second Consecutive 1st/2nd Place Matchup

17 September 2008 No Comment

For the second time in as many nights, I attended a MLB game between a division’s 1st and 2nd place teams. Monday night was the AL East in St. Petersburg. Tuesday night was the NL Central in Chicago.

The Chicago Cubs defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 5-4 in C.C. Sabathia’s first National League loss. The game marked Dale Sveum’s managerial debut for the Brewers after Ned Yost was fired Monday.

Pre Game Dining
Once again we headed to the Full Schilling for pre game drinks which include a hot dog with every drink purchase.

Post Game Dining
After the game we headed back to our favorite Wrigleyville dive bar on the corner of Byron St. and Sheridan Rd. Last night the owner was working behind the bar. We asked him what the name of his bar was and he told us – Wrigleyville North. The official address is 3900 N. Sheridan Rd. All of this time and we just thought it was the bar with an Old Style sign in front.
