Chicago baseball is booming.
Sure, it's only two games into the 2016 season, but both the Cubs and White Sox are off to great starts, accomplishing something that hasn't happened in more than six decades.
The Cubs and White Sox have not started out the same season 2-0 since 1951, when Nellie Fox was just beginning his career and two seasons before Ernie Banks made his MLB debut. Hawk Harrelson was only nine years old the last time both Chicago baseball squads started out 2-0.

Each team took a different path to their 2-0 start this season, with the Cubs dominating the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim while the Sox grinded out victories over the Oakland A's.
