Wonder why a night game in April on a Monday.

Increases the odds of more people attending a game, espec. Compared to a 1:20 start. They also want more than the 15% Lee Elia is speaking of.

Sure hope that doesn't piss off the residents of Wrigleyville too much.

There's a quota there as far as how many night games.

They're not as bad as a 42-120 team as they project now but they're damn bad. They'll be in the running for worst record, I'll guess 3rd overall for the '13 draft.

Yea, I know. I just think it's ridiculous people live around the stadium... that has been there since 1914... and complain about night games to the point that they force the team to play as many day games as they do. I've heard of studies being done that show the Cubs are disadvantaged by the amount of day games they have to play. Hey people, the stadium has been there longer than you. Go live somewhere else if you don't like baseball.

guess I thought they might draw better during the day what with Chicago April weather and tradition etc

I'll be attending at Wrigley Field for the first time in my life tonight. Looking forward to the urinal troughs.

That is the worst thing ever.

Gives you a good flavor of the Wrigley experience though.
