The Chicago Cubs Finish First

Last night the Chicago Cubs clinched first place in a regular season entity for the 16th time.

Though the team has not won a pennant in 71 years, they have won 10 National League Pennants, most notably four in five seasons a feat only the New York Yankees have exceeded, from (1906-1910.)

Additionally, the Cubs won two one quarter division titles, doing so in 1984 and 1989.

This year’s lopsided victory in the N.L. Central is the Cubs’ fourth one eighth divisional crown, all from the N.L. Central.
