Wish I had more. That '85 team was interesting as well. Age and injuries seemingly caught up to them overnight. Everything turned until the '89 team won the NL East again.
@@retrosportsvision5873 100% injuries caught up with them - they were dominating until June. The '89 team was propelled by the rookies, Grace,Walton,Maddux,Smith,Williams, Well not rookies but young cubbies
Reds fan here… I remember listening to this game… when the Cubs went ahead early, I thought, “oh boy, we’re getting killed…”. But had a feeling that the guys would come back on them for a change because it was Pete’s team…. They had a different attitude from the three previous years when they were so awful…. When Doggie (Perez) hit the the three run homer, it was game on! LOL!
Thank you for this game!⚾️
AWESOME! Love '85 Cubs games bless you sir!

Miss ya Harry and Steve, You made the Cubs games better then anyone!
The were the best. I learned so much from Steve Stone
Concepcion was out at second in the 7th inn
I miss watching them too. They made the Cubs fun to watch. I miss the WGN superstation.
The '85 Cubs were riding off their '84 greatness until June 12.
13 in a row took care of any chances
How is Brewster getting away with wearing a necklace on the mound
I wonder is a major league team can use the Bat Boy as a pinch hitter, after all he is part of the team
I attended this game. Great game!
I hope the Cubs sent Gura back to where he came from
They did release him shortly after this, only made a couple starts.
National anthem from Hell.
Larry Gura on the Cubs?
He made 4 starts for the Cubs after the Royals released him in '85. Cubs cut him loose later that summer.
If hes fast he hid it well.🤣🤣🤣
Poor Larry didn’t last long in ‘85. By then he was washed up
The 1980s when America was fun . Not this shitshow of today .
