The San Francisco Giants seemingly had all the elements to turn a dream season into a nightmare – dominant pitchers, steady defenders, a lineup stacked with disciplined hitters and the deep reservoir of confidence from winning three World Series titles since 2010. “We did not want to see Game 5,” manager Joe Maddon admitted at the winter meetings. “I thought facing Cueto in Game 5 would be the most difficult thing we had to do. I thought it was necessary that we won Game 4 in San Francisco to progress as well as we did. I was more focused on that win than anything else.” More than 2,000 miles away from AT&T Park, Alex Suarez was a little distracted that night, sitting with his wife, Abby, at Prentice Women’s Hospital on Northwestern’s downtown medical campus, awaiting the birth of their first child. The two first met while working for the Cubs. Suarez played at the University of Tennessee with future major- league players like Chase Headley, Luke Hochevar, Julio Borbon and J.P. Arencibia, starting out as an intern in baseball operations in 2008 and rising to be the assistant director of player development and international scouting. Abby, who’s now the executive director of the Anthony Rizzo Family Foundation, had worked on the multilayered presentation to Jon Lester during his recruiting visit before Thanksgiving 2014, when Cubs executives Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer sold their vision of what the free agent could be on the field, in the clubhouse and in the community. Lester, who beat lymphoma as a young pitcher with the Boston Red Sox, uses his platform to fundraise for pediatric cancer research. Even with that $155 million contract, he still had an antenna for negative feedback and how the team would be portrayed in the media, using it all as motivation. “We got 103 wins,” Lester said, “but the Giants were supposed to beat us.” That first-round series appeared headed toward a Lester vs. Cueto rematch as San Francisco lefty Matt Moore shut down the Cubs, allowing one earned run through eight innings and handing a 5-2 lead to a shaky bullpen that led the majors with 30 blown saves. “We were watching the game,” Suarez recalled this week. “When things got serious in about the seventh inning, that’s when we realized: ‘Oh, wow, this baby is going to come quick.’ And then my focus shifted. “At that point, in my head, I’m thinking: ‘OK, we got a game tomorrow. We’ll face Cueto.’ And my son probably would have been born sooner had my wife not wanted to wait in between outs to push.” Suarez laughed over the phone: “She’ll probably kill me for saying that. But, yeah, I was focused on her. And she was watching the game.” With his bilingual background and hybrid roles in international operations and the farm system, maybe Suarez should have seen this coming from the relentless lineup that mounted an epic comeback against five different San Francisco relievers. Suarez helped expand the pipeline former Cubs executive Oneri Fleita started to build in Latin America. It produced the elite prospect (Gleyber Torres) surrendered in the Aroldis Chapman trade and the chest-pounding rookie catcher (Willson Contreras) who delivered the game-tying, two-run, pinch-hit single in the ninth inning. Suarez’s father, Alex, owned the indoor hitting facility in Miami that the Cubs used as an offseason staging ground for some of their young hitters like Javier Baez, Jorge Soler and Albert Almora Jr. An under-control Baez knocked Hunter Strickland’s 99-mph fastball back up the middle for a 6-5 lead over the Giants. When the Cubs needed a translator for the sensitive conference call in late July as a precondition for closing that blockbuster deal with the New York Yankees – to address a 30-game suspension under Major League Baseball’s domestic-violence policy – Suarez became a point man for chairman Tom Ricketts, Epstein, Hoyer, Chapman and agent Barry Praver. Chapman unleashed 13 ninth-inning fastballs – all 99 mph or faster – to end the even-year myths about a Giants team that couldn’t land the superstar closer at the trade deadline. Future Hall of Fame manager Bruce Bochy told CSN Bay Area at the winter meetings: “I’m not going to lie. In all my years, that’s the toughest game I’ve ever had to bounce back (from).” While a Giant comeback launched a new generation of Cubs, fueling optimism that ending 1908 would only be the beginning for the team that finally won the World Series. “It had a lot to do with the fact that they had grown up in this organization,” Suarez said. “So from the day that they got here, they were exposed to the fact that: ‘Hey, it’s going to happen. And you’re going to be a part of this.’ “When Theo and Jed and Tom took over the team, as an employee, you got that sense: ‘Hey, these guys are pretty serious about winning.’ And even as an employee, you start believing it. You start saying ‘When It Happens’ and some of the mantras that we’ve used over the last five years. “These guys mentally were (so) prepared, I think, by implementing certain things, such as a mental-skills department, and having these guys being able to visualize that moment and seeing themselves in that moment. It was almost like second nature to them. “They were probably way less experienced (than those) ’07 and ’08 teams. (But) it was like a perfect mixture of veteran guys that knew how to handle our young guys and bring them back on track when they needed to. “And the young guys that were confident – not arrogant, not cocky – confident in their abilities and the fact that they wanted to be a part of something special. “Once we (got to the playoffs in 2015), you just saw a different focus. Like we’ve been there, we know what we have to do now. And I think Joe had a lot to do with that, in terms of harnessing that emotion and coming up with his own little ways of getting these guys to compete while having fun. “(But) it all starts with the culture that was created at the top.” Cub fans will reflect at Christmas time, remember this team and treasure their memories from the playoff whirlwind. Maybe they will think about the people who didn’t get to see it happen, or how they will someday explain to their children what it used to be like to be a Cub fan. Daniel Jacob Suarez was born on the night of Oct. 11, 2016. “It was crazy,” Suarez said. “We were in the labor-and-delivery room watching the game. And he was literally born while we were celebrating on the mound or (on the field). “Obviously, this is probably the most amazing year I’ve ever been a part of professionally and personally. But if there was one word to describe it emotionally, it would be rollercoaster. No doubt.” -- Chicago Tribune In World Series moment, Wayne Messmer wore reminder of night he was shot By David Haugh A daily reminder of the darkest moment in his life 22 years ago, the black Florsheim dress shoes just sat there in Wayne Messmer's closet, waiting to be worn during one of his proudest. "I kiddingly say whenever I get famous, you can put those shoes in a museum,'' Messmer said. But Messmer put them on his feet before singing the national anthem at Wrigley Field before Game 5 of the World Series, the same size 9½ Ds he was wearing April 9, 1994, when he was shot in the neck and nearly died. To Messmer, slipping the shoes on again helped a man full of gratitude feel grounded. As he announced his footwear choice to his wife, Kathleen, she winked like a woman who understood the significance of the steps her husband would take that day. "An extremely personal moment,'' Wayne said. "Some people will find it creepy or disturbing but if you get it, you really get it. … She got it.'' She lived it. "Those shoes remind Wayne that life is precious and that you never know when the gifts you've been given could be taken away,'' Kathleen said. Without walking a mile in Messmer's shoes, as they say, it seems easy to understand why this was not your ordinary fashion statement. The near-death experience more than two decades ago still frames every day for Messmer, 66, best known for the baritone voice that made Anthem Singer a brand in Chicago. Around 1:50 a.m.

  • Wayne Messmer – CSP Certified Professional Speaker
    Wayne Messmer – CSP Certified Professional Speaker While in demand as a motivational and inspirational speaker, Wayne Messmer’s voice remains most associated with the singing of the National Anthem. He has held a professional association with the Chicago Cubs as public address announcer and/or soloist since 1985. For three years prior to joining the Cubs, he was the field announcer and soloist for the Chicago White Sox. Wayne spent thirteen seasons as the celebrated soloist for the Chicago Blackhawks of the NHL. His association with sports began as the announcer/soloist with the two-time champion Chicago Sting Soccer Team. He is a founding partner of the four-time Cup champion Chicago Wolves Professional Hockey Team of the AHL where he currently serves in a consulting role as Senior Executive Vice President and still performs the National Anthem at Wolves home games. Messmer was the announcer at two MLB All-Star games played in Chicago; at Comiskey Park in 1983, and at Wrigley Field in 1990. Additionally, his spirited rendition of the United States and Canadian National Anthems at the NHL All-Star game in Chicago Stadium in January 1991 was replayed on every major network newscast across the country that evening, and still appears at or near the top of many lists as one of the most memorable National Anthem performances in sports history. He also sang at Games 3 and 5 of the 2016 World Series at Wrigley Field. This life-long, native Chicagoan’s career has spanned over thirty-years as a professional singer, radio broadcaster, musical theatre performer, narrator, voice-over artist and professional speaker.
