The U.S. Navy Leap Frogs parachuted into Wrigley Field with the Cubs' 'W' Flag

By Ben Cosman

The Cubs topped the Brewers, 9-6, on Thursday. On the strength of Kris Bryant's 5-for-5, two-homer game, the team jumped out to an early lead and never lost it. But if any fans were watching the pregame festivities, a win was never really in doubt. The "W" flag, raised after ever win, had already been flown:

The U.S. Navy Leap Frogs dropped into Wrigley Field from 3,000 feet in the air -- well established as the coolest way to enter a ballpark -- carrying the American flag and the aforementioned Cubs Win Flag.

Taking in a baseball game after skydiving and predicting a Cubs win? Not a bad way to spend an afternoon.
Watch the video above to hear the Frogs talk about their entrance.
