It's been 12 years since the NLCS has been at Wrigley. Here's how the ballpark and neighborhood are being dressed up for the occasion.
BCB's David Sameshima went to the area around Wrigley Field over the weekend to check out preparations for the National League Championship Series, which will be on the North Side of Chicago for three days starting Tuesday. (Yes, three -- let's be optimistic!)
I visited the ballpark on Saturday and Sunday. They were working on the plaza building on Saturday. I could not see any work taking place from the street. I could hear the workers, so I knew they were in there.
