Cubs Trivia:

How many doubleheaders did the Cubs sweep en route to the National League pennant in 1945?

Please don't feed the psychos.

12, that's my guess, but the amount of double headers that they played in '45 is absurd.

Spriggs is a genius!

A real genius would figure out a way to save Hostess so that Tommy Twinkie doesn't die.

I might not be genius enough to save Hostess - the company, but I did buy and save many boxes of Twinkies and Suzy Q's when I heard the news. My garage freezer is stuffed - so maybe I can help.
