    Fans in the Wrigley Field bleachers in 1977 | Photo by Heinz Kluetmeier /Sports Illustrated via Getty Images It was one of those wacky mid-1970s games. The 1977 Cubs contended for the NL East title for a good portion of the season. As I’ve noted many times, they hit 25 games over .500 in late June (47-22) and were eight games ahead in first place.

From July 2 through the end of the season the Cubs went 32-58 and wound up with a 98-loss s...2023
