April 14, 1978. Cubs-Pirates. Cubs home opener. 45,777 paid attendance. Largest crowd in my lifetime. I was there.
A see-saw game. The Cubs scored one in the first and two in the second. The Pirates tied it with three in the sixth and took a 4 to 3 lead in the top of the eighth. But the Cubs tied it 4 to 4 in the bottom of the eighth.
