It was an Opening Day to forget for the Cubs on Thursday as they allowed the Nationals to roll into town and put together a 10-4 victory at Wrigley Field. Major League Baseball allowed the Cubs to host a game on March 27, which ensured hot chocolate sales would be sky-high and the forecast could be adventurous.
As it turns out, things weren't all that bad on Chicago's North side. The game time temperature was 49 degrees with a wind clocked at 22 mph. Certainly nothing people who have been operating in worse conditions over the past few months couldn't get past with enthusiasm for a new year and a libation or two.
