    Tribune staff reporter
    The last time the Cubs fell out of contention before the Wrigley Field ivy was in full bloom was in 1997, when they set a National League record for futility, starting the season at 0-14. Though this year's edition isn't anywhere near as hopeless, it...

  7. Hawkins likely blows closer job

    Special to the Tribune
    If you think the weather was cold Saturday, you should have seen the icy treatment the Wrigley Field crowd gave LaTroy Hawkins. He lost the save, lost the game and apparently lost his job as the Cubs' closer during a brutally cold and bitterly...

    Tribune staff reporter

  15. Coming up short

    Tribune staff reporter
    If the Cubs lose a chance to go to the postseason, they will spend a long winter thinking about all the squandered opportunities and all the runners thrown out on the bases. They blew a chance to overtake San Francisco in the wild-card chase Saturday...

  17. Bats stay quiet for 2nd game in row

    Tribune staff reporter
    In his first year as Cubs manager, Dusty Baker's club never was swept in a three-game series, something the franchise hadn't achieved in any season since 1937. "No sense to start now," manager Dusty Baker said Tuesday night at Bank One Ballpark. "We ain'...

  23. From the cubicle: Cubs lose home opener

    Baseball is back at Wrigley Field. Things are different from last year. The Cubs and the World Series are being talked about in the same sentence.
