Phillies versus Cubs


Wow, what a crazy looking boxscore. Tyler Kepner/NY Times did a great job reminiscing with former players about a game at Wrigley Field in 1979 that ended with the final score of Phillies 23, Cubs 22. It was the second highest scoring MLB game since 1900, behind only another Phillies/Cubs affair at Wrigley Field in 1922. That one ended up Phillies 26, Cubs 23. [My personal sarcastic note: We do not know for sure if these contests were the results of performance enhancing drugs.]

Goat head discovered outside Wrigley Field
