According to a report from ESPN’s Jesse Rogers, Wrigley Field will move to 60% capacity as of May 28, a move that will allow nearly 25,000 fans purchase tickets to each game. This is in line with Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot’s plan to have Chicago 100% open by the Fourth of July, so expect additional capacity increases in the coming weeks.
