    Getty Images This deal set the tone for the rest of the 1984 season. The Cubs’ 1984 starting rotation wasn’t all that strong at the beginning of the season, and got weaker when Dick Ruthven had shoulder surgery in May. That helped lead general manager Dallas Green to trade for Dennis Eckersley near the end of May. But another rotation starter, Scott Sanderson, also had injury issues in ear...2024

Timeline

  • 2024
    "Rick Sutcliffe and Ron Darling were the starting pitchers on an overcast afternoon that featured a near-full house of 32,403 (remember, the capacity of Wrigley in 1984 was just a bit over 36,000)."

  • 2023
    "The 15th strikeout of the game, of Alou, tied the Cubs’ team record for a nine-inning game, which had been set by Dick Drott in 1957 and tied by Burt Hooton in 1971 (in just his second big-league start) and Rick Sutcliffe in 1984."

  • 2022
    "Then, Boog will ask his broadcast partner (generally Jim Deshaies, Rick Sutcliffe or Ryan Dempster) whether he had ever had a similar thing happen during his career."

  • 2020
    "Rick Sutcliffe: I'd donate my ESPN salary to aid MLB restart"

  • 2018
    "He became the first pitcher since Rick Sutcliffe in 1987 to do all that while not allowing a run."

  • 2017
    "Rick Sutcliffe remembers that Oriole Park at Camden Yards had an old soul, a true baseball soul, months before it was even open."

  • 2016
    "Rick Sutcliffe, who started Game 1 of the 1984 National League Championship Series for the Cubs, unofficially opened Chicago's fifth trip to the NLCS with Saturday's ceremonial first pitch before Game 1 against the Dodgers at Wrigley Field."

  • 2015
    "Baseball Tonight noted Arrieta is the first Cubs hurler to win 20 before anyone else in the majors since Rick Sutcliffe did so in 1984."
