1969 Cubs Historical Heroes and Goats: Part 17

Last time, we covered Week 16 of the 1969 MLB season. That included the All-Star Game in which five Cubs participated, followed by the first four games after the break, a series with the Dodgers that the teams split. The Cubs continued to lead the NL East by five games. The last three weeks, their lead ended at exactly five games.

In Week 17, we’ll look at the final seven games of what was an 11-game homestand to start the second half. It will feature the other two California teams, San Francisco and San Diego.
