Wrigley Field may not have bleachers right now, but it has a massive 42-foot-by-95-foot video board in left field.
Despite the privately funded $575 million renovations being way behind schedule, the Cubs announced Tuesday that Wrigley will be ready for opening night Sunday, although the outfield bleachers will not be open.

The left- and center-field bleachers are expected to be open by May 11, and the right-field bleachers will be ready for fans in mid-June.
