It is indeed pretty amazing that they're winning some of these games. Hoping we can split at least in NY. But in some ways, the Cubs are reminding me of the Brewers of recent years, and the Cards NOT of recent years, in which you're scratching your head at the record based on what's on the field and who they're playing. Let's hope it continues and the team can get healthy.
Thought I'd share that my wife and I have been taking my son to different ballparks the Cubs are visiting over the last several years, trying to get as many in as we can while he's still young and before traveling with us loses its luster. In very last minute fashion we decided to go to Boston last week as my son had random days off from school at the end of the week. (We live in LA, so it's quite the trek.) I had never been, but Fenway was a treat. We did a tour on Friday and then saw that night's win, and then attended the blow out loss, which was a lot less fun obviously.
Anyway, I guess the Cubs aren't likely back in Boston for another couple of years, but happy to share some recommendations should anyone be headed there. Same for other parks, we've now done all the California stadiums, Phoenix, Toronto, and Detroit. We're also going to go to KC this year, and try to pick off one of the parks around the DC area while visiting family.
