History: On September 9, 1969, during a pivotal series against the NY Mets, a black cat crawled out of the Shea Stadium grandstand, looped once around Ron Santo in the on-deck circle, then stopped and stared at Cubs manager Leo Durocher in the dugout. The 'curse of the black cat' was born [2048 x 1412].
