Let your "W" flag fly!
I tried so hard to stay awake! Fell asleep just as the 13th inning started. Great to wake up to a victory though!

Did you stay for the whole game? PLEASE say yes!I'm planning to go to Wrigley on Monday evening, August 29, vs. Pittsburgh. It's been over 20 years since my last visit. And it will be my first night game there.
I agree, nice way to Wake up!I tried so hard to stay awake! Fell asleep just as the 13th inning started. Great to wake up to a victory though!

Awesome Robin! We are toying around with Friday..... but take this along in caseI'll be at the game tomorrow! Let's hope for the SWEEP!
"We want to get 'Hammer' back out there a little sooner, and Montgomery, coming off 90 [pitches] in his last outing, gives him an extra day," Cubs manager Joe Maddon said Tuesday. "It makes all the sense in the world to do it."

I wouldn't have stayed for the whole game either. I live 150 miles away and would not be able to drive home if I stayed an extra 2 hours. I do always stay for the end of the 9th at the very least. I was at the longest Cubs game in history in July 2014 but finally headed home in the 11th inning. I drove home listening to the game and the Cubs won in 16 innings. http://wgntv.com/2014/07/30/cubs-win-longest-game-in-team-history/Ummm....I could SAY I stayed for the whole game, but it would be a lie.
We left in the top of the 8th, with Pittsburgh leading 6-3. Got back to our hotel bar just in time to see the game-tying HR in the bottom of the 9th. So we decided to sit and watch. I lasted until the end of the 11th. DH stayed to watch the thrilling finish.
Unfortunately, I missed a lot of good stuff.
They are building a hotel/restaurant/bar complex.By the way, what are they building behind the stadium on the Clark Street side? And I noticed they knocked down half the block across Addison St and also the NW corner of Addison and Clark.
And those Jumbotron video screens look like they block the views from some of the rooftop bleachers across the back streets.
awww man.....bummer, you will just have to come back! lol...day game next time. Like Robin said a whole complex going in and courtyard/entertainment area. A Starwood hotel is going up where McD's used to be.Ummm....I could SAY I stayed for the whole game, but it would be a lie.
