Restoring and expanding a 100yearold ballpark was no small feat. See what it took to ensure the future of the Friendly Confines was secure for the next 100 years. "Saving Wrigley Field" details the multiyear journey to preserve the magic of this beloved ballpark.

Wrigley Field has played an important role in the development of professional baseball and has been the site of numerous baseball milestones, including Babe Ruth’s supposed “called shot” in the 1932 World Series, Gabby Hartnett’s “homer in the gloamin’,” Ernie Banks’ 500th career home run and Kerry Wood’s 20strikeout game. Wrigley Field is the only Major League Baseball (MLB) ballpark still standing in which Jackie Robinson played and, in May 1943, it was the site of the final tryouts and organization of the AllAmerican Girls Professional Baseball League, the first major women's professional sports league in the United States.

With the completion of the 1060 Project and its recent designation as a National Historic Landmark, Wrigley Field will continue to be a part of history for generations to come.
