In the 1984 season, the Chicago Cubs made history at Wrigley Field. Managed by Jim Frey and led by Dallas Green, the Cubs secured first place in the National League East with an impressive 96-65 record. This marked their first postseason appearance since 1945. Behind Cy Young Award winner Rick Sutcliffe and MVP Ryne Sandberg, the Cubs showcased their talent. Frey's leadership earned him the Manager of the Year award. Despite their efforts, the Cubs fell short in the National League Championship Series against the San Diego Padres.
