SDI hit up the Crosstown Cup last week for Game 1 at Wrigley on an unseasonably hot and sunny Wednesday. This year’s Crosstown Classic (also called the Cup) came and went without a lot of fanfare; blame it on those damn Blackhawks that just keep on winning and stealing the limelight – or perhaps, this rivalry just isn’t what it used to be.

With the crazy weather we’ve been having in Chicago, the Cubs have gotten a few extra days off. Normally, this extra rest might help a struggling ball club, but it’s only the third week of the season, and the Cubs can’t really use exhaustion as an excuse for their rough start to the season.
