I've been reading the book Take me out the the Cubs Game - 35 Former Ballplayers speak of losing at Wrigley by John C. Skipper.

One point I read repeatedly by several former Cubs was that playing all those day games really wears you out.

Former Cubs shortstop Don Kessinger said "I'd lose 10 to 12 pounds playing in Wrigley Field in the summer, and I didn't have that much to lose." (He went from 175 to 155 in the summer of 1969.)
