a spot in the playoffs as the Wild Card team in 1998. Three times,

Series, but could not make it to the World Series in any of the
3 attempts.

BUY CUBS TICKETS The Cubs nearly won the National League –
Central Division title during the 2001 season, and hoped to finish
the job in 2002. The Cubs however could not continue the successes
they had the year before and were under.500 for most of the season.
At mid-season, the team saw their manager fired and rookie pitcher
Mark Prior go 6-6. At seasons end, the team manager would change
again, in an effort to get back to 2001 form. The 2003 season
was a resurgence for the Cubs. The Cubs earned a spot in the playoffs
and faced the Atlanta Braves in the National League Division Series.
In that Series, the Cubs would win in 5 games, to earn the right
to play the Florida Marlins in the League Championship Series.
In that Series, the Cubs dreams of finally getting back to the
World Series were shattered as the Marlins beat the Cubs in 7
games. The 2004 season saw the Cubs achieve there first back-to-back
winning seasons since the 1971-72 seasons. Although injuries plagued
the team through much of the season, the Cubs saw the return of
ace pitcher Greg Maddux who earned his 300th career win. Slugger
Sammy Sosa also became the Cubs all time home run leader, passing
the legendary Ernie Banks.
