Good start to what turned out to be a not-so-good year

On this date in 1969, Billy Williams hit four consecutive doubles in a #Cubs 11-3 victory over the Phillies behind Bill Hands at Wrigley Field.

Cubs Trivia

What Cub tied Williams' club record of four doubles in a game in 2006?
What is he doing now?

Who came up at the same time as him and was hit in the helmet in his only Cubs plate appearance?   
The Marlins later signed him to a one-day contract to give him an at bat where he struck out.

The doubles guy could be Ryan Theriot?  I have no idea what he's doing these days, though.

As Len and JD just reported a little while ago, former Cubs hurler and Chicago native Scott Sanderson passed away today.

Last year I got an email at the end of each game with a summary.  Not getting those this year.  Anybody know where to sign up for that?  I can't remember.

For a number of years, part of Cubs.com included what they called "game notes".  About two hours before each game you could look at all the background information that Len and JD had for that game.  Now you have to be credentialed by MLB to have access. 

Ryno and his wife at Harry Caray’s...any guesses to the 3rd guy in their party?
