For openers, Wrigley Field ready to party
After 100 years, Wrigley Field certainly shows its age, but that doesn't mean the iconic ballpark doesn't enjoy a good party.
With cool temperatures and strong winds, the Cubs opened the 100th season of Wrigley hosting one of their former icons, Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg and his Philadelphia Phillies for a 1:20 p.m. game.
And Cubs fans also got a chance to welcome rookie manager Rick Renteria, who got his first win against at Pittsburgh on Thursday.
