Don't know about last night. Those numbers aren't out yet. Also, parades and celebrations in Chicago coming soon.

I ask because almost 20 years ago when Jamaica qualified for the World Cup Football competition in France, no one was murdered that night.

You want to tie one to the other? Let my wonderful city have a day to celebrate. Baseball brings people together. Chicago has tremendous problems but if you live here you'd realize the problems are in a few troubled parts of this very large city. I love this place and hopefully it's difficulties can be resolved soon. Go Cubs!
