We welcome October back for another go-around, and what a go-around it is. Last year at this time, as some of us prepped for the Chicago Marathon, we found ourselves constantly drenched in sweat as Summer's grip held firm. This year, Summer has relented the stage at the proper time and has given us something to revel in. The crisp air that's descended up our city will give us highs around 60 and partly sunny skies today, with lows tonight around 50. And we lucky Chicagoans have perhaps the greatest gift of all to enjoy in this weather: October baseball.
