Wow Adam. The Cubs were so fun to follow in the eighties. Harry Caray was the best. Saw the Cubs 6 times in 84 and they went 6-0. Now there’s a guy on the Reds that’s your Sutcliffe. It’s Elly de la Cruz. Seen him twice and once he drove in 6 runs and the other he stole 3 bases.

Sounds like you have the Midas touch when it comes to in-person games! I haven't seen Elly in person yet, but I sure want to.

I had a dose of Rose and the 1980 Phillies when I was young and repeating names, but the 1993 crazy crew did me in for good.

The '83 Wheeze Kids Phils were the first team I rooted for in the World Series, so that fun '93 club was easy to root for in October.
