Well, at least he walked off and got an applause. Unlike the first time. Not sure how many of you younger folks know that we let Greg F-ing Maddux sit by a fax machine for a contract offer than never came in 93 and allowed the best f-ing pitcher in baseball in the last 50 years to leave (not wanting to) so he could win a World Series and some pennants and countless playoff appearances with the Brave thru the 90s. The Cubs loved torturing their fans more than any team ever - cause we would support them when they sucked so they didn't have to spend money. My God, was Greg Maddux special...a one of a kind mind and athlete.
I was there. One of the hottest games I’ve ever attended. Last time Maddux played for the Cubs.
