Reading Baseball's Pete Peterson

The Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates suffered through losing seasons once again.  In his latest edition of Reading Baseball, Pete Peterson tells us how the Cubs historic championship drought  is taking the heat off another franchise with roots in both Chicago and St. Louis.

Reading Baseball is a series of original essays and commentaries by Richard "Pete" Peterson, editor of the St. Louis Baseball Reader and the author of Growing Up With Clemente.
