Compacity is a made-up word that combines the words (and meanings of) compact and density.

Compacity is also a frequent misspelling of the word "capacity".

Ryne Sandberg got his 2000th base hit, a single, on July 3, 1993 off of Curt Leskanic of the Colorado Rockies.

The Chicago Cubs have won 100 or more games in a season five times. The last time was in 1935.

Interleague is referring to within the league. If someone is playing an interleague team, they are playing someone in the same league as them.

1) AAA - Wichita Aeros, American Association

2) AA - Midland Cubs, Texas League

3) A - Key West Cubs, Florida State League

4) Rookie - GCL Cubs, Gulf Coast League

No, because having a cub pilot life is like dying everyday; then you have to go through hardships every single day.

May 6th 1978 was a Saturday. You can see further and past dates at the website in the related links.

Yes. In 2005, Chris Carpenter of the St. Louis Cardinals won the Cy Young Award and Albert Pujols won the National League MVP Award. Also in 2006 Justin Morneau won the AL MVP and Johan Santana won the AL Cy Young for the Minnesta Twins. Neither of these teams would win the world series. ----

In 1956, Don Newcombe was MVP and Cy Young Award winner for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Same for Sandy Koufax for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1963, Bob Gibson of the St. Louis Cardinals in 1968, Vida Blue of the Oakland Athletics in 1971, Denny McLain of the Detroit Tigers in 1968, Rollie Fingers of the Milwaukee Brewers in 1981, Willie Hernandez of the Detroit Tigers in 1984, Roger Clements of the Boston Red Sox in 1986, Dennis Eckersley of the Oakland Athletics in 1992.

There are probably others that have won both the MVP and Cy Young in the same season and I am sure there have been many times when the same team had the MVP and Cy Young winner.

Theodore Roosevelt was president the last time the Cubs won the world series in 1908. Since then, as of 2010, there have been 18 US presidents in office.

The double play combination of the Chicago Cubs. New York sports writer, Franklin Pierce Adams, (who wrote for the New York Evening Mail I think) wrote a short poem in 1910 titled "Baseball's Sad Lexicon" :

These are the saddest of possible words:

"Tinker to Evers to Chance."

Trio of bear cubs, and fleeter than birds,

Tinker and Evers and Chance.

Ruthlessly pricking our gonfalon bubble,

Making a Giant hit into a double-

Words that are heavy with nothing but trouble:

"Tinker to Evers to Chance."

Joe Tinker was the shortstop, Johnny Evers played second base, and Frank Chance was the fist baseman..

A 1994 Upper Deck Derrek Lee rookie card number 539 has a book value of about $4.00 in near/mint -mint condition. Professionally graded cards will sell for more. Condition is important.

Common flaws with baseball cards include: rounded edges, creases, off centered, and faded color. Any or all flaws will devalue the card significantly.
