Today, despite the presence of light standards on the roof, Wrigley Field remains one of baseball's most old-fashioned parks, rivaled only by Fenway Park in simplistic charm and beauty. It has the smallest capacity in the NL at 38,143, with an ordinary double-decked grandstand that runs along each foul line and very small bleacher sections in the outfield. The outfield walls are still made of red brick, and are covered with thick green ivy, into which balls often disappear for ground-rule doubles. The large center field scoreboard is still manually operated, and it carries the complete line scores of all NL games each day.
