With the start of the playoffs in baseball and the Cubs actually getting a chance to play in October, I thought it would be fun to listen to some of the songs that made it to the Chicago Top 40 Charts in the 1980s.

Most of these tunes were on the charts longer than The Lovable Losers will last in this year's post-season extravaganza. DBacks in four, clinching in The Friendly Confines on the same day the Pack bludgeons Da Bears and a day after the Badgers destroy the Fighting Illini in Champagne.
