The Cubs should put a new version of this flag at Wrigley Field

The photo you see above is of West Side Grounds, where the Chicago Cubs played from 1893 to 1915.

Many of those were very good years for the Chicago National League Ball Club. They won four pennants in five years in 1906, 1907, 1908 and 1910 (and until this year, the 1909 club was tied for the most wins by a second-place team, 104). As you well know, the Cubs won their only two World Series before 2016, in 1907 and 1908, while having West Side Grounds as their home park. Neither title was won at home; even after 2016 the Cubs still don’t have a World Series clinching win on their home field.
