A ballhawk's perspective on the goings-on OUTSIDE of Wrigley Field during the 2005 Chicago Cubs baseball season. Home-run tallies and batting practice counts of all the balls hit out of the park, plus interesting observations and tales of all walks of life that pass by the corner of Waveland and Kenmore.

A little warmer and a little less windy, so a little more activity on the street - at least during batting practice. Still - it's almost June and we really haven't broken a sweat yet. I'm sure come August when it's 105, I'll be crying a different tune though.
Weird sight of the day: Guy comes walking down Waveland carrying a bundle of firewood in each hand. Firewood -- in May??? Hope that's not an omen...
Cubs lose 5-1. Last night Cubs go against a future Hall-of-Famer Roger Clemens and win - ok, so Cubs didn't do most of their damage until after the Rocket left, but still... Tonight, Cubs go against some converted outfielder Brandon Backe, with Greg Maddux on the mound no less, and don't do squat. Go figure...
