The Cubs have played 11 home games so far in 2022.
The average game-time temperature has been 52 — and that includes one day in the 70s. Rain has fallen during several of these games and there has been one postponement.
That rainfall was in evidence Tuesday evening at Wrigley Field in the form of an irritating mist that fell almost throughout the entire three hour, one minute game, never hard enough to stop play, but enough to keep nearly half of the 34,206 announced crowd from showing up at all. By the time the 3-1 Cubs loss to the White Sox was in the books, maybe 2,000 remained at the ol’ ballyard.
