Wrigley Field historical sleuthing: The scoreboard on a cloudy day

Related Topics: Wrigley Field, Chicago Cubs

I found a bunch of old Wrigley Field scoreboard pics on my phone with no dates — they somehow all got dumped in with a date of December 27, 2021 which I knew wasn’t right — so I decided to do some sleuthing with them.

This one fell pretty quickly.

It’s the bleachers after the first renovation but before the second. After the second, with the video board in the way, you can’t get good photos of the scoreboard from the street.

And, it has FLORIDA on the board which means it’s before 2012, when the Marlins were renamed MIAMI.
