Major League Baseball is eyeing its next massive showcase, trading concrete jungles and overpriced stadium beer for pine trees and the iconic peaks of Grand Teton National Park.
Specialty neutral-site games have been massive hits for MLB, but when word leaked that the league was sniffing around federal land, Washington rushed to pump the brakes.
In an official statement, the White House confirmed MLB approached President Donald Trump's administration to ask about hosting a game in a national park, "similar to the Field of Dreams game" in Iowa.

They are likely looking at the area close to Jackson Hole Airport, which is within the Grand Teton NP boundaries. There are already established ranches, businesses, and homes inside the park and within a mile of the airport.

If it doesn’t work out or it’s too expensive, sign up Sydney Sweeney to appear.
Would provide “the iconic peaks of Grand Tetons”.
Lots of small college and municipal fields around that could benefit- hold a lottery.
If you build it, they will come.
They should build a minor league park in the Villages. Those people have plenty of free time to go to the game in their golf carts. Perhaps build an arena for a WNBA team so the old geezers can watch it for the jiggle factor in between fights.

Major League Baseball (MLB) approached the Trump administration about hosting a special game in a national park (similar to the Field of Dreams games), and officials have scouted sites in Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming for a possible temporary baseball park.
The idea remains preliminary. White House and MLB officials confirmed the outreach. Sources familiar with the matter said an administration/agency official (reported elsewhere as National Park Service Deputy Director Frank Lands) recently visited the park and examined potential locations for a facility to host an MLB game.
In a statement, the White House emphasized that MLB—not the president, White House, or Department of the Interior—initiated the inquiry. It is not an administration priority or presidential directive. No site has been selected, MLB has made no final decisions, and the National Park Service has granted no permits.
National parks have strict protections; constructing even a temporary sports facility could set a precedent and conflict with rules limiting impacts on visitors, wildlife, traffic, roads/trails, wilderness areas, and commercial elements. The report notes broader context around the administration’s approach to national parks and has drawn criticism from conservation groups and some local officials, who call the concept inappropriate for protected lands known for wildlife such as grizzlies, wolves, and bison.
Marketing patriotism to suckers isn't going to work.
Uh, which part to them “ladies” jiggle?
I’m not sure. Certainly not their camel toe.

I feel sorry for you,
waking up every day to look for
the negatives in everything.
I pray that you will find something in your life
that will give you enjoyment.
No infrastructure.
No infrastructure.
Hard to play games when there is a strike / lockout.
“No infrastructure.”
Plenty of infrastructure by the Jackson Hole Airport, which is within park boundaries. Jackson is only 10 miles down the highway.
Hold it at the Grand Canyon with the outfield warning track at the rim but no wall.
The negatives? That's all it is, the "negatives"?
They spit in the face of all Americans, kneeling in solidarity with Communist organizations such as Black Lives MatterTM to overthrow the legitimately elected U.S. President in 2020. THEY RIOTED THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY AND OVERTHREW A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
And I didn't go looking for it - it was broadcasted continuously nationwide.
I feel sorry for you, waking up every day, simping to those who spit in your face and the face of your fellow Americans. I pray you will find your self-worth and stop using sportsball as something in your life that gives you meaning.
It's okay to give up sportsball. Really, millions have done it.
