Notes: Renovations begin at Wrigley
Crews replacing the playing surface of 'Friendly Confines'

The temperature topped out at about 60 degrees at Wrigley Field on Friday -- a beautiful day for some yard work.

Two crews this week began tearing up the playing surface at the 93-year-old home of the Cubs for a total renovation of the drainage system and turf. The project, which the club hopes to complete before the end of November, is being overseen by White Sox groundskeeper Roger Bossard, who proudly wears the nickname, "The Sodfather." When it's done, the field will be turned back over to longtime Cubs groundskeeper Roger Baird.

"I'm so happy for Roger. He's got the last old car in the Major Leagues," Bossard said.

In fact, Wrigley was the only Major League ballpark that still employed a "crown" to drain rainwater off the field. Cubs players and coaches sitting on the dugout bench would have to strain to see the first baseman across the field.

That will no longer be the case after Bossard is finished. Crews are removing 7,500 tons of dirt and will lower the playing surface about 14 inches over the coming weeks. Kansas City clay will be laid down and leveled before Bossard installs his trademark system of drains, to be made up of 6,000 feet of piping that can hold 60,000 gallons of water, easing the flow of water into the old neighborhood sewer system.

The sod will come from Colorado or New Jersey, depending on the weather in each spot when Bossard's crews are ready, and will be transported to Chicago in refrigerated trucks. Over the cold and snowy winter months, the grass will remain covered by a specialized geo-textile material that will keep the turf 7-9 degrees warmer than the surrounding air.

Timing is critical. Bossard is hoping to finish the project before the end of November, but even a few days of bad weather could set things back.

"It's a six- to seven-week job and I'm trying to get it done in four weeks," he said.

Bossard is a veteran of 10 field renovations, including the 2004 re-do of Boston's venerable Fenway Park and the 2001 installation of the new Miller Park in Milwaukee. It's been pointed out that four of the last six World Series champs have played on one of his fields.

"Maybe it will be the Cubs' turn next year," he said.

Q: What did Jesus say to the Cubs last time he was on Earth?

A: “Don’t do anything til I get back.”

:haha:

That was hilarious!
