Hopefully everyone had a happy Thanksgiving with family and/or friends. As the off-season rolls along and the roster ever so slowly begins to come into focus for the 2020 season, we continue our look back at the 1969 Cubs. When last we checked in on them, we looked at the seventh week of the season. That was a week that saw them play seven games on the West Coast and come away with five wins. The second place Pirates managed to match that number and so the division lead remained at six games.
Week eight begins with two games in San Francisco to finish out the trip west.
