Previous anniversaries of Cubs first league game By JohnW53 on May 7, 2021, 4:43am CDT +
The Cubs are scheduled to host the Pirates today, May 7 the
150th anniversary of their first league game, also played at home: their National Association debut, a victory over the Cleveland Forest Citys.
After 3 innings at the Union Grounds, the White Stockings, as they were known then, led, 14-1. But they barely hung on to win, 14-12.
I described that game in detail in a previous post.
Then I wondered how the Cubs had fared on other significant anniversaries of that historic win.
Here is what I found:

CLEMSON, S.C. â Caden Grice hit three homers with eight RBIs to lead Clemson to an 11-3 victory over No. 4 Louisville at Doug Kingsmore Stadium on Friday night. The Tigers, who took a 1-0 lead in the series, improved to 19-18 overall and 13-12 in the ACC. The Cardinals dropped to 23-12 overall and 14-7 in ACC play.
Grice hit a grand slam in the first inning, a solo homer in the third inning and a three-run homer in the fifth inning. His eight RBIs were the most by a Tiger since 2006 (Tyler Colvin). Grice became the 15th Tiger and first since 2018 (Grayson Byrd) to hit three homers in one game. Grice also pitched a scoreless eighth inning in relief.
