This was my favorite bear Cubs alliance
Dunston, Sandberg, and Grace
Who almost did it, but were stopped by the Giants
Dunston, Sandberg, and Grace
Mark was so clutch, Shawon sure could throw
And Ryno of course was the main show
Spring words that could make me forget about snow
Dunston, Sandberg, and Grace

Written in the style of Adams' "Baseball's Sad Lexicon." Growing up a Cubs fan in the 1980s, I wanted to write my version to speak about the players I watched in the 80s. The Cubs had the best record in the NL in 1989 but lost in the playoffs to the Giants.
