I wonder if Shoeless Joe Jackson will wander in from the cornfield during the game...
The Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees will play a 2020 regular-season game at the Field of Dreams site in Dyersville, IA, Major League Baseball announced Thursday. Scheduled for August 13, 2020, it will mark the first MLB game held at the fan-favorite movie location and in the State of Iowa.
That is great! ‘People will come’
I hope Ed Cicotte comes back and tries to throw the game again.
Visited that very field and ran the bases....
Chicago South sider. CUBS fan but went to a heck of a lot of SOX games growing up.
Like this. Fun idea.
Trusting to St. Peter to keep out the White Sox’s alleged first fan. We can’t, alas, ban him from our State, but he doesn’t belong THERE! His succeeding Yankee fan would, and could get the first pitch over the plate without movie special effects.
One of the all time dumbest movies ever made. Also the very worst baseball movie ever. Stupid idiotic drek.
I love baseball, that’s why I hated it.
Too late MLB, soccer fields are replacing baseball fields at a phenomenal rate. You are done.
Respectfully disagree.
Great movie.......
Wow. You sound like a lot of fun to hang out with. Great movie! It’s not intended to be a documentary.
I’m assuming both these teams make fans pay twice for a double header, but they’re OK with just 8,000 seat bleachers? (No luxury box seats?)
