There is an area near the ballpark that has several hotels in it. One of 'em is a Hilton Related (maybe Hampton Inn or another = to it by Hilton that we stayed in) as well as a Marriott type. . . if not more. We stayed at the Hilton Affiliated and ate at the other. The red trolly takes one from MDW to the hotel, and back to the airport. When ready for the game, we went back to the airport, got on the appropriate EL and then headed to the park.

One might consider it out of the way with the necessary transfer on the EL, however, we didnt' need to rent a car, and definitely cheaper on the transportation. If flying into town to take in the game, we'd do it this way againl
