In 1984 I was a freshman at Mt. Carmel High School in Chicago; and as the school year hit April and May many of us began making our way over to Wrigley Field for day games. The trick was not getting caught on television (like in the movie, “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” which came out in 1986) and hoping the Cubs would win for all the trouble it took to skip school. So let me take you back to what it was like that year and the heroics of Chicago Cubs center fielder, Bob Dernier.
