We descended into a deep tunnel and jumped a train.  There was a number of homeless people asking for money.

Then we walked through a scary underground shopping center that led us to a shuttle bus that took us to the park.

The rain was still falling, so we went to the "Chop House".

We had 4 bad dogs, 2 beers and 2 cokes for $56.00 plus tip.

This was taken before we got the bill for the bad dogs.

This was the only bad thing in this game. We had a big head sitting in front of us.  He looked like Puddy in Seinfeld.

The Cubs had a pattern going that produced a 9-1 win. They scored 2-1-0-2-1-0-2-0-1.

The Braves found a way to cool off the red hot Sarino. (3 home Runs in game 2) Hudson drilled him with the first pitch of the game. Both teams were warned, but it didn't mean anything, because the Brave's pitchers threw behind one batter and hit another.  The next night Ted Lilly hit their short stop and was thrown out of the game with no warning!
