Finally!! While I grew up as primarily a fan of the White Sox, I watched alot of Cubs games. You couldn't help it, the games were WGN or more approriately, Channel 9 and of course all the home games were day games. When I got home form school the games had usually started but if I was lucky I would get the chance to see Dick Tidrow with his great moutache and high kick and then to close the game, Bruce Sutter! I am not sure I reall y understood what was so special about a split finger fastball except that most guys would strike out swinging at it! While he will wear a St. Louis cap in the Hall, he won his Cy Young with the Cubs. True Cubs fans should be proud as one of the all time great Cubs enters into the Hall of Fame today! Congrats to Sutter!
