Cubs are 1 game away...

Is Jack Brickhouse still alive

I don't think so.

Most of my family are huge Cubs fans and I really hope they pull it out this year. My maternal grandparents are still alive, well into their 90's and follow every pitch. I would love for the Cubs to win "for them" this year.

Go Cubs!!!! Looking forward to the Cub/Soxs series! Can't lose either way!

Jack passed away in August of '98, about 6 months after Harry passed away. Two broadcast legends in the same year.

I am sure Harry, and Jack Brickhouse are sitting up there on a cloud today.

Going to be a great day in the Windy City.
