Three suggestions...

... all close to the ballpark:

Hawthorne Terrace

Inn at Lincoln Park

Days Inn Lincoln Park

All of these are within a mile of Wrigley (you can walk it) and reasonably priced.

Priceline is your friend, maybe

If you are coming in on a weekend, there's a good chance that you can get a very good priceline room off of Michigan Avenue for about the same price.  It depends on if any conventions are in town, and what festivals are at Grant Park.  Googling for discussion boards that look at priceline might be your friend.

It's a simple question, Doctor: would you eat the moon if it were made of ribs??

However...

... he specifically said he wanted to be close to Wrigley. Michigan Avenue doesn't qualify.

Another alternative

If being close to the ballpark isn't the main concern you might want to look at some of the near in suburbs for a room.  Pay half the cost and usually they have transport to an L or train to get into the city.

We are all waiting for that glorious October night when we finally win it all. Until then we will continue to cheer, never do the wave and hope.
