On this day in 1943, Cubs great Handy Andy Pafko made his Wrigley Field debut.
If anyone tells you they were there for that game, don't believe 'em. The attendance was only 314. That's right, 314. It was a miserable day, and the game was called after five innings with the Cubs leading 7-4.
Handy Andy made a splashy debut. He went 2 for 3 and knocked in four runs from the fifth spot in the lineup.
