Say goodbye to Draft Town.
And welcome to Baseball City.
Sorry, St. Louis. But this year it can be found 300 miles north on I-55.
From Bridgeport to Wrigleyville, the signs everywhere are the ones workers won't be taking down Sunday around Grant Park. Ignore the football weather. Just look at the baseball standings.
You will find the Cubs and White Sox with the best records in the National and American leagues, respectively. The last time that happened this late into the season, Whitey Lockman managed the Cubs, ace pitcher Wilbur Wood dominated for the Sox, the Sears Tower opened downtown and gas cost about 40 cents per gallon.
