The team, its fans and the City of Chicago gear up for the postseason with great excitement and anticipation. On October 7, the Cubs will face the Pittsburgh Pirates for a Wild Card game to begin their postseason journey. "Congratulations to the Cubs. We're proud to be a Legacy Partner and the Cubs' Official Water Efficiency Partner," said Sloan President, Graham Allen. Back in March of this year, the Chicago Cubs and Sloan joined forces and established Sloan as the team's Official Water Efficiency Partner. As part of this relationship, Cubs Spring Training Facility in Mesa, Arizona, was named Sloan Park. While the Legacy Partnership between the Cubs and Sloan is new this year, Sloan products have been in use at Wrigley Field since 1914 – back when it was known as Weeghman Park. Sloan continues to help the Cubs organization expand its ongoing sustainability efforts and improve the fan experience at Sloan Park and Wrigley Field in Chicago. The company's expertise will be particularly helpful in the ongoing water-sustainability efforts in the Arizona area. "Sloan is passionate about providing intelligent water solutions to the communities we serve. We are excited to have a major presence both in Chicago and Mesa to authentically convey the message of water sustainability," said Sloan President, Graham Allen. As you continue to watch the Cubs throughout the playoffs, stay on the lookout for Sloan sustainable solution advancements at Wrigley Field and Sloan Park in the coming year.

Castrovince | October 23Rd, 2016 CLEVELAND -- the Baseball Season Ends with Someone Else Celebrating
C's the day before: Chicago, Cleveland ready By Anthony Castrovince / MLB.com | @castrovince | October 23rd, 2016 CLEVELAND -- The baseball season ends with someone else celebrating. That's just how it is for fans of the Indians and Cubs. And then winter begins, and, to paraphrase the great meteorologist Phil Connors from "Groundhog Day," it is cold, it is gray and it lasts the rest of your life. The city of Cleveland has had 68 of those salt-spreading, ice-chopping, snow-shoveling winters between Tribe titles, while Chicagoans with an affinity for the North Siders have all been biding their time in the wintry winds since, in all probability, well before birth. Remarkably, it's been 108 years since the Cubs were last on top of the baseball world. So if patience is a virtue, the Cubs and Tribe are as virtuous as they come. And the 2016 World Series that arrives with Monday's Media Day - - the pinch-us, we're-really-here appetizer to Tuesday's intensely anticipated Game 1 at Progressive Field -- is one pitting fan bases of shared circumstances and sentiments against each other. These are two cities, separated by just 350 miles, on the Great Lakes with no great shakes in the realm of baseball background, and that has instilled in their people a common and eventually unmet refrain of "Why not us?" But for one of them, the tide will soon turn and so, too, will the response: "Really? Us?" Yes, you. Imagine what that would feel like for Norman Rosen. He's 90 years old and wise to the patience required of Cubs fandom.

Entering its fourth season as the Official Water Efficiency Partner of the Chicago Cubs, the partnership represents a union between two family-owned, Chicago-based institutions. Not only does Sloan have a presence at Wrigley Field, it is the official naming rights partner of the Cubs’ Spring Training facility, Sloan Park, in Mesa, Arizona. New to the park this season is Sloan’s logo placement featured on the right-field visitors’ bullpen door within the ivy of Wrigley Field, along with logo placement in the opposing team bullpen and in a video feature during the opposing team’s relief pitching changes that highlights additional in-game branding. “At Sloan, we’re proud of our century-long partnership with the ballpark, one that even pre-dates the iconic ivy of Wrigley Field,” said Sloan president and CEO Graham Allen. “From one family-owned, Chicago-based company to another, it has been our honor to provide Cubs fans with commercial restroom solutions for more than 100 years.” Sloan has been a pioneer in plumbing technology since 1906 when William Elvis Sloan invented the revolutionary Royal® Flushometer, just one year before the Cubs claimed their first World Series title in franchise history. A sustainable and water-saving system designed specifically for high traffic environments; the Royal Flushometer provided the framework for a century of innovative Sloan products.
