Opened in 1914 is the second oldest ballpark in the major leagues behind Boston's Fenway Park (1912). Originally known as Weeghman Park, Wrigley Field was the site of Babe Ruth's historic "called shot", when he allegedly pointed to the outfield bleachers during the 1932 World Series and then hit Charlie Root's next pitch for a homer. One tradition of Wrigley Field is the flying of a flag bearing "W" or "L" atop the scoreboard after a game. A white flag with a blue "W" indicates a victory; a blue flag with a white "L" denotes a loss. Wrigley has the smallest seating capacity in the National League.

出售美國職棒大聯盟（MLB）芝加哥小熊隊（Cubs）瑞格利球場（Wrigley Field）給伊利諾州（Illinois）當局的計劃，因為球團暨球場老闆芝加哥論壇集團（Tribune）和州當局在價碼上談不攏，而遭到擱置。伊利諾州體育設施管理局（ISFA）今天說，論壇集團認為這項收購應包括球場未來出售的轉讓，以及未來30年瑞格利球場娛樂稅營收。 ISFA也表示，論壇集團認為要達成交易的另一個條件是徵收新稅，或把ISFA承諾要在芝加哥南郊另一所球場整建計畫中投入的資金轉移。

ISFA主席、前州長湯普森（James Thompson）說：「ISFA不同意這種要求。」不過湯普森表示將繼續和論壇集團交涉，或和買下小熊隊的新東家洽談。
