Saturday was another busy day at Wrigley Field. Unfortunately, it was construction instead of baseball.
BCB’s David Sameshima visited the ballpark on Saturday and filed this report.
I ended up visiting the ballpark in the late afternoon. The temperature had dropped, and the winds picked up, as expected. I did wear a winter hat, but regretted not bringing gloves. The sun just began getting hidden by clouds right after I arrived.
They were starting to chip away the concrete in the right field corner, above the Wintrust Gate (former Gate D) area. The machine equipped with the jackhammer device at the end of its arm was working in tight quarters.
