With a less-than-marquee opponent on tap for Ohio State, this week, the venue the Buckeyes will play Northwestern in is as big a storyline as the game itself.
The Buckeyes and Wildcats are facing off in one of America's most iconic baseball stadiums, Wrigley Field, home to the Chicago Cubs. It will be the fourth time Northwestern has played in the Friendly Confines and the first for Ohio State, who will aim to make the Wildcats 0-4 in their trips there.
Considered a road game for the Buckeyes, there could be a heavier presence of Ohio State fans than there otherwise would be for a matchup at Northwestern.
