Now we know why there weren't night games at Wrigley for the longest time.

And it took the light towers 18 min to cool off so the emergency generators could power them back on. That sucks.

Yes, this was the top story on ABC 7 news last night at 10:00 and it was the #2 story on Channel 5. :rolleyes:

An 18 minute power outage delay at Wrigley is worthy of a mention in the sports highlights, but top news story? Hardly. Local news is such a ****ing joke.

Wait, so the pitch counted? Now- if the dude hit pop-up, like he was joking about... would the play have continued?

One pitch is not the end of the world, but you'd figure they'd call it off.
