Baseball history unpacked, May 25

In our last unlamented feature, we looked at Hack Wilson, Woodrow Wilson, and other people having as much fun as is legal, and maybe a little beyond that. Today we salute the Sultan of Swat, Say Hey! to Willie Mays, feature a quartet of Cubs pitchers, and remember when Casey Stengel gave a whole crowd the bird, in a Cubs-centric look at baseball history.

Please enjoy immoderately, and tell your friends.

Today in baseball history:

“No matter how your mind works, baseball reaches out to you. If you’re an emotional person, baseball asks for your heart.
