About Today’s Final Jeopardy – Friday, 5 May 2023
The Chicago Cubs were originally known as the Chicago Orphans until 1902. After their star player, Frank Selee, left to manage the Boston Beaneaters, the team needed a new name, and the team was sold to James Hart, who wanted to rebrand the team.
The squad was initially named as the Chicago Colts, but the moniker did not last long. In 1902, the team’s new owner, Charles Murphy, opted to rename the squad the Cubs in honour of the team’s inexperienced and young players. The name “Cubs” was intended to convey the picture of young bear cubs, and it was a natural name for a rebuilding club.
