Welcome back to Cubs baseball. Or at least welcome back to seeing a team wearing the classic white uniforms with blue pinstripes on the field at Wrigley Field. The 2021 season is officially underway. The Cubs largely failed to answer the opening bell and so they have notched their first defeat of the season, a loss to a Pirates team that some think could reach 100+ or beyond in that category.
The highs? Some fans were able to return to Wrigley Field. It certainly wasn’t the sold-out crowd we’d expect on opening day, even on a cold April afternoon.
