It has been a long time since Wrigley Field has been full as shown in the 2019 photo above. The last near-capacity house was 38,606 on a rainy Sunday, September 22, 2019, the final home game of that season — don’t click on the boxscore link, you really don’t want to re-live that game.
That game was against the Cardinals. Fittingly, then, the re-opening of Wrigley Field to full capacity will be against the same team, the Cubs’ biggest rivals, a week from today, Friday, June 11, following the lifting of pandemic restrictions in the city of Chicago.
