CHICAGO • It’s 7 p.m. Sunday, Wrigley Field, and it’s as quiet as, well, an October night at Wrigley Field.
The wind whips and the flags flap. The stadium lights illuminate the infield, while in left field, four sprinklers shoot up V-shaped sprays, which, on the eve of Games 3 and 4, dare it is suggested, symbolically look like two large Ws.
The view from the press box is green and clean and serene, and Monday night will be nothing of the sort, because there will be a rock concert here.
It’s the first playoff game at Wrigley since 2008.
