Time for this week's JOBC Contest.
The first person that e-mails me the correct answer at rick@justonebadcentury.com will win a commemorative Greg Maddux 3000th strikeout scorecard and a t-shirt from the Just One Bad Century catalog.
Here's the question. Yesterday the Cubs went 20 games under .500 for the first time this season. Of course, they've done this many times before. Fifty years ago (1961), the Cubs also sunk to 20 games under .500. They did it in dramatic fashion; losing in the bottom of the ninth to Milwaukee on a three run homer by a player the Cubs had traded to the Braves earlier that same season. Name the player. (Hint: He has the same first and last name as one of the greatest players in White Sox history)
UPDATE: We have a winner! Kim Otner was the first one to e-mail the name of Frank Thomas, the answer to today's JOBC contest. She gets the program and t-shirt. Another contest next Monday!
