59 - Red Sox at Cubs - Friday, June 10, 2005 - 1:20pm CDT - WGN

This was the first match up between the Boston Red Sox and the Chicago Cubs since Babe Ruth pitched for the Red Sox who defeated the Cubs 4 games to 2 in the 1918 World Series. It was the first ever Cubs-Red Sox game to be played at Wrigley Field. This was due to the Chicago home games being played at Comiskey Park in the 1918 World Series, which had a greater seating capacity than the Cubs' Weeghman Park. Between the 1918 World Series and 2005, both the Cubs and Red Sox endured an endless saga of countless heartbreaking defeats with very little to celebrate. While the Red Sox had just ended their 86-year World Series Championship drought by defeating the St. Louis Cardinals 4 games to 0 in 2004, the Cubs were still suffering through 96 full seasons since their last World Series Championship over the Detroit Tigers 4 games to 1 in the year 1908. It was a drought that would continue through the 2005 season, and through the next ten seasons in 2015, before it finally ended after 108 years in 2016 with a 4 games to 3 victory over the Cleveland Indians. This ballgame featured a pitching match up of Bronson Arroyo for the Red Sox and Greg Maddux for the Cubs. Maddux would go 6 and two-thirds innings, allowing 7 hits, 3 runs, 1 home run, 1 base-on-balls and 5 strikeouts. Arroyo would only last 4 innings, allowing 10 hits, 7 runs, 2 home runs, zero base-on-balls and 4 strike outs. Maddux would earn his fifth winning decision, with Arroyo on his third loss. The game was a slugfest, with Jeromy Burnitz hitting 2 home runs for the Cubs along with Todd Hollandsworth and pitcher Greg Maddux. Red Sox superstar David Ortiz equaled Burnitz with 2 home runs of his own, along with a homer by Mark Bellhorn. It was a total of seven home runs combined on a day with the wind blowing out to centerfield at 6 mph. The Cubs scored 14 runs on 20 hits (!) and one Red Sox error, while the Red Sox scored 6 runs on 10 hits and zero errors committed by the Cubs. While the Cubs would go on to win the World Series 11 years later in 2016, the Red Sox followed their 2004 championship with two more in 2007 (4-0 over Rockies), and in 2013 (4-2 over Cardinals). “Return of the Red Sox” - 0:02, 11:05, 19:12 Lead-Off Man - 31:28, 34:48, 38:40 Broadcast Open - 41:53 First Pitch - 49:08 Greg Maddux home run - 2:36:26 Box Score: https://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...
