Wrigley Field and Lance Berkman

Wrigley Field and Lance Berkman

The Texas Ranger evidently doesn’t like our home field:

“If they’re looking for a guy to push the button when they blow the place [Wrigely Field] up, I’ll do it,” Berkman told the Star-Telegramand Dallas Morning News.

“It’s one of the worst places in baseball for, well, just about anything. I really don’t like it. I read where they got approval for some more upgrades. Count me in the group of people extremely happy to see that. I guess I’m just spoiled. “There is a tremendous history associated with it and there is something special about playing on the same field that guys like Babe Ruth did. But really, what kind of history is there? It’s not like there has been one championship after another. It’s mainly been a place for people to go and drink beer.”

I’m thinking when this guy goes fishing he will only fish after some sonar finds the fish.
