Cub Rally at Daley Plaza

It rained in Chicago on Monday, but that didn't prevent 20,000 fans from attending the rally at Daley Plaza in celebration of the Cub championship in the National League Central Division. The Cubs hope to win the NL pennant this year, something they haven't done since 1945. So the fans gave their loudest applause to Andy Pafko, who played with the 1945 Cubs. The Cubs have not won a World Series since 1908.

The Cub players themselves weren't at Monday's rally, having gone off to Arizona to prepare for the first game of the playoffs. No one at Daley Plaza seemed to mind.
