List Of Chicago Cubs Seasons
The following lists the results of every season of the Chicago Cubs professional baseball club of Major League Baseball, beginning from their inaugural season in 1871 as the Chicago White Stockings to the present. Initially, the White Stockings were part of the National Association, but after it folded in 1875 the White Stockings, along with other baseball teams at the time, established the National League. The White Stockings changed their name in 1890 to the Chicago Colts and again in 1898 to the Chicago Orphans until finally settling in 1902 with the name of the Chicago Cubs.
The Chicago Cubs have completed 140 seasons of professional baseball games, second only to the Atlanta Braves. Within this time, the Cubs have won 16 National League pennants, 2 World Series Championships, and tied for 1 Pre-World Series Championship.
