Something I never realized until spotting it in John’s piece. Jackie’s address here is the house Rachel grew up in.

The Chicago Bridge Lifts resume this week for the 2026 boating season. First day is Wednesday.

On this day in 2019, I witnessed one of the coolest things ever. A lenticular cloud lit-up by a setting sun over the Perito Morena Glacier in Argentina.

Fog layer across the Chicago Skyline on Thursday.

John Vincent

That would be John Vincent. Outstanding singer. He holds the "FREE" when ever he sings the anthem. He will engage with you at the ballpark and even let me try on his WS ring. Told me the greatest singer he ever heard, was his Dad! Wonder man!

Pic I took of Matt Boyd arriving at Wrigley Field this morning.

IMO truly one of the nicest guys on the team.

Perhaps ironically, Chuck Taylor was never an all-star.

Taylor was born on this date in 1942.

Today In 1946: Jackie Robinson is greeted with a handshake from teammate George Shuba after hitting a HR in his first game with the Montreal Royals - farm club of the Brooklyn Dodgers! The gesture is considered a historic interracial first for pro baseball. #Inspiration

80 years ago today, Jackie Robinson made his integrated professional baseball debut with the International League's Montreal Royals.

He went 4-for-5 with a home run and two stolen bases in the Royals' 14-1 win over the Jersey City Giants at Roosevelt Stadium.
