The excitement of getting that call that you are going to the big leagues is pretty special. When you are lucky enough to have mom, dad and the family in the stands, well, that's pretty cool too. Then add in that you play for an organization in first place, trying to hold off the defending World Champions in their ballpark and you are starting at third base. Okay, the butterflies in your stomach are the size of horses.

In Part 2 of this series, we looked at memorable walkoff wins since 1916 that the Cubs have had against the seven original National League ballclubs. Today, we’ll have a look at the eight NL expansion teams (The Brewers, of course, came to the NL when the AL expanded in 1998).
The numbers, of course, go generally in the order the teams came into the league, except for the Brewers, where the Cubs have more walkoff wins than against the D-backs (who entered the NL at the same time as Milwaukee) because the Brewers are a division rival.
