The Chicago Cubs will not be holding a viewing party at Wrigley Field for the National League Wild Card Game.

"We explored the idea of hosting a NL Wild Card viewing party for fans at Wrigley Field, in the event we play on the road," the team said in a statement on Wednesday. "After much consideration regarding the logistics and time required to successfully execute an exceptional guest experience while actively preparing for potential postseason play at home, we have decided to put this plan on hold."

"Given the excitement we have seen from Cubs fans this season, we know our fans will find a great place to watch the game and cheer on our team," the team said in the statement.

According to a report by the Chicago Tribune, the Cubs planned on selling tickets to Wrigley so that fans can watch the game on the video boards in left and right field.
