Does anyone else get exhausted from day games? 

Post#1 » by jwmann2 » Thu Jun 9, 2011 5:12 am

Went to the Cubs-Reds game today in Cincinnati. Not only was finding parking in downtown on a weekday a headache, but the heat was unbearable. How do you fans sustain this in Chicago everyday? I was smart enought to not drink beer and I think I am done with day baseball games for good. My hat goes off to you Cubs fans, supportive like no other teams fans.

I don't think the players like it either. The Cubs have historically had the worst home field advantage in the league.

Day games at Wrigley are special but there are way too many of them. Unfortunately the city seems to be a bitch when it comes to negotiating with the Cubs about changing that. For me it's difficult to watch them because of work or school.

Players on other teams have their night games, they go out to eat later, maybe drink a little, but then they sleep in until noon or later if they want to. Over the course of an entire season that can have a significant advantage.
