Every opening day brings a reminder of something from the past, and the past is a prologue when it comes to the Chicago Cubs.
Chicago Cubs mascot Clark waves a"W" flag after a Cubs 4-0 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on opening day at Wrigley Field, March 30, 2023.
It was their 8,368th game at Wrigley since April 20, 1916, when the Cubs moved into the ballpark at the corner of Clark and Addison streets, an afternoon the Chicago Tribune called “another epochal day in the history of baseball.”Wrigley has changed quite a bit since that 7-6, 11-inning win against the Cincinnati Reds. Even the old center-field scoreboard wasn’t around back then. But Cubs fans have stayed pretty much the same.
Cubs starting pitcher Marcus Stroman encourages the Wrigley Field crowd after throwing in the sixth inning against the Brewers on Thursday. Stroman threw six scoreless innings in the Cubs' 4-0 opening-day victory.Most of the 36,054 in attendance Thursday stayed for the finish of the opener, which lasted 2 hours, 21 minutes. They sang that Steve Goodman song before departing and were home in time for dinner.
