Apart from New York, Chicago is the other U.S city that has two MLB teams, Chicago White Sox and Chicago Cubs. Would you believe the
Chicago Cubs had their best season in 1906, that was 104 years ago! After that season came the back to back World Series wins in 1907
and 1908. Since then, the Cubs have reached the National League title sixteen times. They also clinched 3 Central Division titles two
of which came back to back in 2007 and 2008. Despite not winning a championship for more than a century, fans still flock to see their
favourite "Boys in Blue", a reference to the teams blue uniform. Chicago Cubs are also known as "The North Siders" as opposed to the
other Chicago team, the White Sox. It says a lot about the popularity of a team and its huge and loyal fan base that brings this team
again and again on the most valuable team list. Cubs are sitting on the 5th spot of the most valuable MLB team for the 2010 season.
Chicago Cubs have the MLB's oldest rivalries with St. Louis Cardinals.
The club was first formed in 1871 as Chicago White Stockings but dropped that name in favor of Chicago Cubs in 1903. This
National League MLB team have been playing at The Wrigley Field, which is their home park since 1916. Wrigley Field is one of the
oldest and smallest ballpark in MLB having 41,000 capacity. Along with the Fenway Park, Wrigley Field has retained its old fashioned
hand-turned scoreboard, which, with the ballparks ivy covered walls, adds to its charm. Wrigley Field has played host to several other
teams among them, Chicago Bears who moved out to Soldier Field in 1970. The ballpark has also played host to several world series
games.
