Cubs historical sleuthing: Tyler Houston edition

I found this photo while I was looking for something else, and I like this one in particular because it’s a fairly recent photo that still needs to have an exact date sleuthed. Further, with it being a specific play, we can definitely narrow this down fairly quickly.

Getty Images says:

Tyler Houston #7 of the Chicago Cubs trying to tag Bret Boone #24 of the Atlanta Braves during a game in Wrigley Field in May 1999 in Chicago, Illinois.

(Illinois was misspelled above, I fixed it.)

There were just two games in May 1999 in which Tyler Houston played third base, at Wrigley Field, against the Braves.
