April 5, 1982 Third baseman Ryne Sandberg makes his Cubs debut Opening Day in 3-2 win in Cincinnati.
1993 On Opening Day, Greg Maddux, who was signed as a free agent, allows no runs and scatters five hits to his former team over 8 1/3 innings as the Braves edge the Cubs, 1-0.
2002
At Wrigley Field, the Pirates nip the Cubs, 2–1. Dave Williams pitches six innings for the Bucs, leaving after Sammy Sosa hits a homer that bounces back on the field. A new addition to Wrigley is a green tennis wind screen the Cubs erected on the fence lining the back of the bleachers in left field to block views from the rooftops on Sheffield and Waveland avenues. This is the latest skirmish in the war between the Cubs and bar owners who have put up roof top venues. FX Reprographics had 22 people at $113 apiece in the bleachers atop Michael Kaufman's skinny building on the left–field line on Waveland. Kaufman and the other 10 rooftop owners disagree that they are stealing the Cubs' product.

The ironic thing? Tonight Ryne Sandberg has his managerial debut with the Peoria Chiefs! Destined for Greatness?
