Wrigley Field is your Radio Trivia Answer
Wrigley Field is a baseball stadium in Chicago that has served as the home ballpark of the Chicago Cubs since 1916.
During Cubs games, Cubs fans will stand on Waveland Avenue, waiting for home runs literally hit out of the park.

Okay, I know everybody else has already said Wrigley Field, because if somebody hits it out of the park Waveland Avenue is where it usually lands. And yes, even Cubs hitters have done it.
So also have ex-White Sox hitters. Al Weis, all 165 pounds of him, once hit a three-run shot for the Mets in 1969, which put the game away for the Mets. It landed on Waveland Avenue. The next day he hit another home run, prompting Jack Brickhouse to groan, "Oh, no, not again!" The Mets won that one, too.
(Weis was an equal-opportunity shocker. He hit one off Dave McNally to tie the fifth game of the 1969 World Series, and was the leading hitter of the Series with a .455 average, about double what he usually hit.)
