A Chicago baseball weekend itinerary — see the Cubs at Wrigley Field and the White Sox on the South Side, both on the CTA Red Line, in one trip. Day-by-day plan from Chasing Stadiums.
Chicago's two ballparks both sit on the CTA Red Line, so a weekend can cover Wrigley Field on the North Side and the White Sox ballpark on the South Side — ideally around the Crosstown Classic. Check both home schedules, then ride the Red Line between them.
Take the Red Line to Addison for Wrigley Field (1914). Walk Wrigleyville and Gallagher Way before the game, take in the ivy and the hand-turned scoreboard, and sing 'Go Cubs Go' after a win.
Ride the Red Line to Sox–35th for the White Sox ballpark. Watch for the exploding scoreboard after a home run. If the Cubs and White Sox meet during your trip, the Crosstown Classic is a Chicago highlight.
Yes. Both Wrigley Field (Red Line to Addison) and the White Sox ballpark (Red Line to Sox–35th) are on the CTA Red Line, so a weekend can cover both.
The Crosstown Classic is the interleague rivalry series between the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox — the best time for a two-park Chicago weekend.
