Well, it ain't. Wrigley is smack dab in the city. Sidewalks and streets on all four sides. A small parking area for ballplayers & management.
Even a Sox fan would know better.
Anyway, that ruined the books for me. Chicago is not a fictional localilty, and it shouldn't take much effort to get the facts right.

This is too funny! I live just outside of Chicago in Northwest Indiana and had some of the same location issues.
I started reading the series until the agency pricing drove the prices up over 9.99 - hopefully, at some point I will get back into the books when they fit my definition of a reasonable price...
