You might have noticed that the scheduled 6 p.m. CT starting time for last Wednesday’s Cubs/Dodgers game at Wrigley Field didn’t match any usual night-game time for a game during the week. Those are usually 6:40 p.m. CT in April, May and September, and 7:05 p.m. CT the rest of the year. (Hint, Cubs: Many fans really like the 6:40 time and would love to see it all year.
