Chicago baseball notes

Today in Chicago, the White Sox and defending champion Cubs met at a point in time after each team had won a title within twelve years.

This is the first time since 1920 that such a point in time existed concerning the two Chicago baseball teams.

The White Sox ended an 88 year title drought by winning the 2005 World Series.

Last season the Cubs ended a 108 year title drought.

Phil Donahue a Cubs rooter is from Cleveland, the city whose baseball Indians now have the sport’s longest title drought.
