Game 7 of the World Series isn't over yet (bottom of the 8th inning as I type). But your chances of taking the CTA to and from Wrigleyville probably are.
The CTA announced via Twitter at 9:40 p.m. that Red Line trains are currently bypassing the Addison Station, and riders should plan on using the Belmont station instead.
ICYMI: Red Line trains bypassing the Addison station; use nearby Belmont station (4 blocks south), instead of Addison.

Wrigleyville is, of course, the epicenter of pre-, during and post-game celebrations. It's a wild world out there, so please be careful getting home:
Dispatch: Totally naked man, 3200 N Damen. Standing on the street with his clothes in his hands. #ChicagoScanner

Update, 12:15 a.m.:
The Addison station reopened a short time after the game ended.
Red Line trains have resumed making stops at the Addison station.
