It is a phrase popularized by Mr. Cub, Ernie Banks. Before the 1923 season began, engineers cut the single deck grandstand in two places to make room for more seats. Even with all of the additions since then, Wrigley Field is one of the smallest ball park in the MLB. Only Fenway Park, Dolphin Stadium, Minute Maid Ballpark, PNC Ballpark, US Cellular Field, Comerica Park, Kauffman Park and McAfee Coliseum. Most of these parks were surpassed in capacity with Wrigley's recent (2006) renovations.A drunk frat boy fell asleep and no one stole his wallet. So he named it the friendly confines. That man - William Shattner.
