    • Cubs historical sleuthing: Nationals Park edition
    Here’s one from a reader, from a Cubs road game. This one was sent to me by BCB reader PACubsfan1. A reminder! If you’ve got old Cubs or Wrigley photos you’d like me to sleuth, send ‘em over (to the email address on my profile here). This is obviously Nationals Park — the big “W” in the photo is the giveaway. But the Cubs uniform numbers aren’t really readable. The only one I can tell for sure is ...2023
