Notes: Neighborhood young ball players and parents joined Saturday to show support for Steve Bartman of Northbrook. Bartman, 26, attracted the enmity of thousands of Cubs fans and worldwide media attention after he tried to catch a foul ball at game six of the National League Championship Series between the Cubs and the Florida Marlins October 14 at Wrigley Field. After the play, the Cubs lost the game, and the subsequent game the next day losing the chance to compete in the World Series for the first time since 1945. Bartman has been in seclusion ever since.
