no crying in baseball page 26 by ric gustafson
On July 29 1991, Penny transformed Wrigley Field from 1991 to 1943. Skyboxes were covered in canvas. Retro billboards were installed in the back of the stadium. The Chicago Cubs set strict ground rules. Cast members and cameramen were the only ones allowed on the field. There were no Dolly shots and plastic mats were placed underneath the equipment.
Tom Hanks came to Wrigley along with his 13 year old son Colin and Jon Lovitz. Everyone involved that day enjoyed being at Wrigley Field. Gloria Mallah was hired to help Bonnie Hlinomaz be Penny's personal assistant. Gloria and Bonnie helped Penny to get going in the morning. Tim Bourne, the unit production manager, would get Penny something from craft services. Penny wore a baseball cap, hair in a ponytail and always had a headset around her neck. Being a part of the production, Mallah found out how chaotic it really was.
Mallah watched as Petty and Davis worked on the first scene of the film. She watched as the two actresses tried to milk a cow. After watching the dailies, Gloria would drive Penny back to her rental home.
