CHICAGO CUBS CUPS 1988 CELEBRATING
THE FIRST NIGHT GAME! BASEBALL ⚾
August 08, 1988
Lights go on at Wrigley
On August 8, 1988, the Chicago Cubs host the first night game in the history of Wrigley Field.
The first-ever night game in professional baseball took place nearly 60 years earlier, on May 2, 1930, when a Des Moines, Iowa, team hosted Wichita for a Western League game. The match-up drew 12,000 people at a time when Des Moines was averaging just 600 fans per game. Evening games soon became popular in the minors: As minor league ball clubs were routinely folding in the midst of the Great Depression, adaptable owners found the innovation a key to staying in business. The major leagues, though, took five years to catch up to their small-town counterparts
