The Chicago Cubs are a Major League Baseball team that plays in the North Side Central Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. The club is in the Central Division of the National League. They are managed by Dusty Baker.

The Cubs are one of two major league teams based in Chicago, the other being the Chicago White Sox of the American League. Both clubs are charter members of their respective leagues.

Franchise history


White Stockings

The success and fame of the Cincinnati Red Stockings of 1869, baseball's first openly professional team, led to a minor explosion of openly professional teams in 1870, each with the singular goal of defeating the Red Stockings. A number of them adopted variants on that name and color, and it happens that Chicago adopted white as their primary color. After a summer of individually arranged contests among the various teams, the time was right for the organization of the first professional league, the National Association, in 1871.

Harden took shot for shoulder pain
BY GORDON WITTENMYER AND TONI GINNETTI Staff Reporters Fri, 03 Oct 2008 00:01:00 -0600
If Rich Harden pitches well in Game 3 on Saturday, one reason might be the cortisone shot he got in his right shoulder a month ago.
