Chicago Cubs Manager
In 29 seasons in the Cubs ticket office, including the last 27 as its director, Maloney oversaw nine single-season attendance records, including Wrigley Field's first two-million fan season in 1984 and its first three-million fan season in 2004. Maloney steps down from his post having helped the Cubs to seven-consecutive seasons with three million fans at Wrigley Field starting 2004, one of only five organizations to reach that mark in each of the last seven years.
Longtime Chicago Cubs ticket operations director Frank Maloney retired at the end of the 2010 calendar year. Maloney remained with the club as a consultant in 2011.

“Nothing could his enemies do but it rebounded to his infinite advantage,—that is, to the advantage of his cause.... No theatrical manager could have arranged things so wisely to give effect to his behavior and words. And who, think you, was the manager? Who placed the slave-woman and her child, whom he stooped to kiss for a symbol, between his prison and the gallows?”
