General view as the Chicago Cubs play against the New York Mets in June, 1989 at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois.

Okay, that’s pretty detailed, but we can do better than that.

The Cubs played a four-game series against the Mets in June 1989, from June 5-8. June 5 was a night game, so that’s out.

It’s the bottom of the fifth inning and you can see the Cubs have already scored some runs in that inning, as there’s a yellow numeral on the board in the last of the fifth, indicating an inning in progress.
