One Wrigley Field memory still haunts Yankees skipper Aaron Boone
New York Yankees’ manager Aaron Boone walks back to the dugout following a visit to the mound in the seventh inning of a game against the White Sox on Thursday, July 30, 2026, at Rate Field.
After splitting four games with the White Sox, the Yankees will remain in town to take on the Cubs this weekend.
For manager Aaron Boone, the trip to Wrigley Field brings back one painful memory. It happened on what he said was “probably” his first visit.
Instead of a, um, friendly welcome, he got bonked in the head.
As an 8-year-old in 1981, he and brother Bret got to accompany their dad Bob on a Philadelphia Phillies trip. The boys were playing in the outfield prior to a game at Wrigley when things took a painful turn for Aaron.
George H. McCaskey reflects on umpiring Savannah Bananas games at Wrigley Field
Many of George H. McCaskey's fondest childhood memories took place at historic Wrigley Field on Chicago's North Side, where the Bears played from 1921-70.
From the time he was born until he was a freshman in high school, McCaskey spent countless Sundays alongside his brothers and sisters at the iconic ballpark watching their grandfather — legendary Hall of Fame owner and coach George Halas — coach their beloved Bears.
This past weekend, the Bears chairman reminisced on those memories while at Wrigley Field for a much different sporting event. McCaskey, who has long worked as a youth and high school sports official, served as an umpire for the world-famous Savannah Bananas — a professional exhibition baseball team that plays a fast-paced, entertainment-based form of the sport referred to as "Banana Ball."
