Fervent admirer of baseball, specifically the Chicago Cubs, captures online attention while diligently working on his laptop during their triumph over the Brewers
A unique moment unfolded at Wrigley Field during a doubleheader between the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers on August 19, 2025. A dedicated fan was spotted working on his laptop in the bleachers, multitasking amidst the baseball action[1][2].
The fan's focus on his laptop during the game caught the attention of Cubs broadcasters, who jokingly speculated whether he was working or perhaps engaged in a fantasy football draft[1]. The moment was captured by the Marquee Sports Network and quickly went viral, with MLB and others sharing the clip on social media[3][4].
The fan's identity remains unknown, but his dedication to work or fantasy sports during the game sparked a mix of reactions—from admiration for his multitasking skills to questions about how he managed to bring a laptop into the stadium[3].
In terms of the games, the Cubs emerged victorious in both matches. Matthew Boyd, the starting pitcher for Chicago, secured his 12th win of the season[6]. The first game ended in a 6-4 win for the Cubs, while the second game was a closer 4-1 victory[2][4].
During the doubleheader, Cubs outfielder Owen Caissie hit his first major league career home run[7]. The Brewers, despite the losses, still maintained a seven-game lead on Chicago in the race for the National League Central division crown[8].
The viral fan moment became a talking point in baseball circles and on social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram[2][4][5]. Cubs play-by-play broadcaster Jon Sciambi also made comments about the fan's laptop usage, adding to the humorous atmosphere of the day[9].
