It's hard to get outs, especially when you're a young guy.
Yeah, Wrigley's the best.
I mean, I always say PNC is the best new park, but Wrigley was my favorite old park, although it's gotten renovated since I played there a lot more.
But it's a party every day.
I used to really enjoy during BP when they opened the gates, the bleacher, because those seats aren't assigned.
The bleacher seats?
Yeah, at least at my time they weren't assigned.
They probably are now.
they would come down and stroll in and fill the rows and be talking to you during batting practice and everything.
Yes, I'm talking the outfield bleachers, like how excited they were.
Like when that thing, they would be running in there to get that front row at the time, at least when I was playing.
And it was a party.
I got to pitch opening day there one time.
A blizzard the day before.
Next day was probably 79 degrees.
No, unfortunately.
Fortunately, I guess for me as a pitcher, because when it's cold, the wind blows in.
And I've told this story once more on the air, so I apologize if I'm repeating it to you, but great game for me.
The front office actually, the day off before, were shoveling the bleachers, the snow off the bleachers.
