VIDEO: Power outage at Wrigley Field during Cubs and Dodgers game
ByDid somebody not pay the electricity bill at Wrigley Field? Check out the video:
Just as Cubs starter Tom Gorzelanny walked Dodgers Blake DeWitt, some lights went out and then all of the lights eventually went out. The Dodgers were leading 5-2 at the time.
The game was halted at 8:25 PM CDT and resumed at 8:43.
Power failure has occurred at Wrigley Field before. It happened twice during 2003.
On May 6, 2003 a power outage in the Lakeview area hit Wrigley in the ninth inning of the Cubs’ 9-6 loss to the Brewers. The game was delayed for about 15 minutes. On June 24, the Cubs-Brewers game was stopped for 16 minutes by an outage in the first inning.
