CHICAGO -- There's no taking Wrigley Field out of the neighborhood that cocoons it. They call it Wrigleyville, of course, and despite the fact the Cubs are working to draw a lot of Wrigleyville business within its revenue orbit, the neighborhood is in some ways as identifiable as the ball-yard that's been home to Cubs games since 1916 (back when it was called Weeghman Park).

If you needed any evidence that the streets of Wrigleyville are animated by the Cubs' fortunes, then you certainly got it in the moments and even hours following the hometown team's win over the Dodgers in the NLCS .
