No. The Chicago Cubs did not make the playoffs in 2009.
2003 Go cubs
2008 but hopefully they will make it in the 2012 season
Through the 2008 season, the last season both the Cubs and White Sox were in the MLB playoffs was 1906. The White Sox defeated the Cubs, 4 games to 2, in the World Series. This is the only season both Chicago teams made the MLB playoffs in the same season.
One club that has not has not played in the World Series is the Seattle Mariners.
The 'magic number' is the number of Cubs wins and Brewers losses, when added together, it takes for the Cubs to make the playoffs. With a magic number of 6, if the Cubs win 4 more games and the Brewers lose 2 games the Cubs make the playoffs. If the Cubs win 2 more games and the Brewers lose 4 more games, the Cubs are in. If the Cubs win 0 and the Brewers lose 6, the Cubs are in.
The Chicago Cubs made the Playoffs (or at least something similar to the Playoffs or the Postseason in the 1800s and the early 1900s) in 1876, 1880, 1881, 1882, 1885, 1886, 1906, 1907, 1908, 1910, 1918, 1929, 1932, 1935, 1938, 1945, 1984, 1989, 1998, 2003, 2007 and 2008.
the Chicago cubs song. GO CHICAGO!
