The Cubs are having a really fun season so why not keep the morale high as we get closer to the postseason. And bringing zoo animals to the field seems like a great way to do that.
The Cubs prepared for their game by hanging out with zoo animals at Wrigley Field
Awwwwww!

UPDATE:
THERE ARE NOW GIANT CHEETAHS LOOSE ON WRIGLEY FIELD!
Ok so mayyyybe not on the loose per se, but these cute cheetahs sure are doing a damn fine job all the same.
Distance from cheetah proportional to expected surplus value. https://t.co/TeMN1SIElj

There's a freaking cheetah on the field at Wrigley. I can hear it purring... Well, I hope that it's purring. pic.twitter.com/5738g911a9
