This is photo I took years ago during the off season.

The original quality is a bit better. I found this photo on display at my mom's house and copied it with my digital camera. Can you point out any changes to the field since then?

The most obvious one is the shrubbery in center...

I don't see the little message board underneath the scoreboard, also I believe the Cubs game is the bottom game on the board not sure though.

Under the scoreboard you can see the old clock that was used for when the Bears played there.

The Cubs and Sox linescores were both in the middle of the board and now its on the bottom.

The center field section went from tarped to untarped to the current Juniper Bushes.

The railing in the picture indicates to me that it is the newer dugout and not the old dugout. At least I do not remember any railings in the old dugout.

My guess is that the picture was taken between 1979 and 1983.

It's an old thread from before MLB took over moderating the boards. You could actually do stuff then it seems.
