Waltz flew over Wrigley on Sunday afternoon and captured the photo.

"The paint really was barely dry," he said "Flew over at 4 p.m. and they were painting over NLCS and returned at 4:45 and not only was World Series complete but great luck let the sunshine through the stadium opening and down the third-base line, putting 'World Series' in beautiful light."

He said the first-base line logo was still being finished while he was flying over.

The Cubs and Wrigley Field are 95 percent owned by an entity controlled by a trust established for the benefit of the family of Joe Ricketts, owner and CEO of DNAinfo.com. Joe Ricketts has no direct involvement in the management of the iconic team.
