Field of Dreams Game 2022

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Gator great and 2021 National League Rookie of the Year Jonathan India will compete in the second-ever Major League Baseball Field of ...

India the midst of his second MLB campaign after claiming NL Rookie of the Year honors in 2021 thanks to a .269/.376/.459 batting line with 21 homers and 12 steals. India will start at second base and bat leadoff for the Reds on Thursday night. On Aug. 12, 2021, the Chicago White Sox defeated the New York Yankees, 9-8, in walk-off fashion to win the inaugural installation.

While both squads have histories that stretch back prior to 1900, the uniforms will be a little more recent than that.

The Reds' uniforms are also a throwback to the early 1900s. The Cubs' uniforms are reminiscent of throwback duds from the early 1900s. Here's what you need to know about this year's Field of Dreams uniforms for both the Cubs and Reds.

After 2021's wildly exciting slugfest, MLB decided to do it again, this time with the locally beloved Cubs and the game's oldest franchise, the Reds.

But when you hit one, you want to hit on it, and certainly the ‘Field of Dreams’ has fit into that category,” he said. But he acknowledged that venues like those — locations with strong baseball traditions — are the kind of places MLB would consider for events in the mold of, if not exactly like, what will happen in Dyersville on Thursday night. The San Diego Padres and Arizona Diamondbacks were scheduled to play games in Mexico City during the 2020 season before it was shortened because of the coronavirus pandemic. What MLB will find out Thursday is whether it was the novelty of the game that made it so appealing or if something about the model can continue to seize fans’ attention. But MLB opted to make the trip — and the effort — at least one more time. The whole thing requires a behemoth effort, and not just because Dyersville isn’t exactly the kind of place built to host a major sporting event.

Others will feel the irresistible lure of the game and depart as converts to the church of baseball. A Tigers- Royals matinee blowout in August doesn't deserve our attention because the score and the standings say so. Whether it's an unforgettable Sox-Yanks showdown on national TV beneath a picturesque Iowa sunset or a daytime clunker in 1963, all big-league games have the ability to wow if you're willing to be wowed. It's a novelty, a beautiful distraction capable of occasional, lasting imprints on the canvas of American life. Twenty years ago, he chaperoned a school trip to New York. Baseball was there in theory, sure, four miles down the road in a cornfield. On Aug. 18, 1963, Ric Willenborg and his father drove from Dyersville, across the width of Illinois, to see the White Sox take on the Yankees for Ric's first big-league game. And even though Maris and Mantle were injured at the time, the Yankees had the AL MVP in Elston Howard and a 38-year-old Yogi Berra in his final year as a Yankee, while Chicago had two Hall of Famers on its roster in Hoyt Wilhelm and Nellie Fox. The shop is a room frozen in time yet somehow extremely neat, well-ordered and without a speck of dust. Ric, in turn, told me about his beloved shop and how his wife, to whom he has been married for 51 years, is the sportswriter for the local paper. That seesaw of a game — one that featured two eventual playoff teams stacked with household names such as Anderson, Judge and Stanton — didn't require a special setting to compel. Dressed in a loose-fitting golf shirt and khaki slacks, Willenborg was finishing up another person's cut and invited me to take a seat by the window. This year's game won't provide the same sort of postseason preview.

Major League Baseball is back in Dyersville, Iowa on Thursday night.

— FOX Sports: MLB (@MLBONFOX) @CubsManager David Ross talks about what the experience at Field of Dreams has meant to him. — FOX Sports: MLB (@MLBONFOX) @Ken_Rosenthalspoke with @JoeyVottoabout how the Field of Dreams connects his childhood to his major league present, and the memory of his late father. "Watching him in the booth, I was in awe. He has three pitches: a mid-90s sinker (depending on your classification), a breaking ball, and a changeup. He'll enter tonight with a 4.40 ERA (106 ERA+) and a 2.90 strikeout-to-walk ratio in his first 43 innings. He almost exclusively leans on his heater and his breaker when he gets to two strikes. "I wish he was here to actually play catch -- have a catch -- with me." (That one just got underway, so it's still 0-0.) Shortstop Nico Hoerner followed with an RBI single and it's 2-0 Cubs with the two-out rally. On the Cubs' end, designated hitter Nelson Velasquez and center fielder Christopher Morel are the rookies who look to figure in their future plans. The Cubs come in 45-65 and 16 games out in the NL Central. That makes them the better team here, as the Reds are 44-66. The Reds' starting pitcher is left-hander Nick Lodolo, a consensus top-50 prospect entering the season.

If you want to attend the Chicago Cubs vs. Cincinnati Reds 2022 Field of Dreams Game, it's going to cost you a pretty penny.

The largest purchase made on TickPick was for a set of three tickets at $1,056 a pop, totaling $3,168. TickPick says the average purchase price for Field of Dreams Game tickets is $967.

Major League Baseball will be back in heaven tonight. Or is it Iowa? The Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds will meet at a ballpark next to the filming ...

Before the game, Cubs and Reds players enjoyed a tour of the ballpark. #MLBatFieldOfDreams pic.twitter.com/FPXuppj11x August 11, 2022 Cubs legend Ferguson Jenkins then threw out the first pitch to former Reds star Johnny Bench. -- Jesse Rogers #MLBatFieldofDreams pic.twitter.com/q1LMmbD09Y August 11, 2022 Starting with Seiya Suzuki driving Patrick Wisdom home, they racked up three runs in the top of the first. That joy was short-lived, however, as White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson homered into the darkened cornfields for a two-run walk-off.

The Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds meet Thursday in the Field of Dreams Game. Here are the top moments.

However, Reds right fielder Aristides Aquino made what might end up being the play of the game. He recalled a story of facing Smoltz early in his career and what it's like to face Hall of Fame pitchers. However, he stayed in the game. Johnny Bench joined Joe Davis and John Smoltz in the broadcast booth during the second inning. Cubs manager David Ross spoke with Tom Verducci on the significance of Thursday night's game. Cubs starting pitcher Drew Smyly's oldest daughter, Parker, is actually celebrating her fifth birthday at the Field of Dreams Game on Thursday. As for the Reds, some players weren't sure what to think about Thursday's game.

For the second time MLB Field of Dreams, located in the same cornfield used in the iconic movie, will host a regular-season game as the Chicago Cubs face ...

First pitch was at 6:23 p.m. CT and the temperature was 77 degrees with low humidity. Both the Cubs and Reds each had multiple baserunners in the third inning, but neither could advance past second base. •1h ago Matt Reynolds replaced Jonathan India at second base to start the fourth inning. •1h ago One of the more interesting things to watch is former players in the stands. You'd think people would realize not to run on Aristides Aquino at this point. He's been charged with four runs so far, but is responsible for two runners here in the fifth. That's it for Nick Lodolo, who went 4.2 innings, allowed seven hits and walked four. He threw 91 pitches, 62 strikes. He allowed four hits, walked two and hit a batter. Additionally, the game was a ratings bonanza for MLB and Fox.

Jessie James Decker, Nashville-based country star, will sing the Star Spangled Banner before the 2022 Field of Dreams game between the Reds and Cubs.

The MLB Field of Dreams Game started in 2021 as a regular-season game between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Yankees. The game was held at a field in Dyersville, Iowa, near a cornfield where the 1989 movie, Field of Dreams, was filmed. The MLB Field of Dreams Game 2022 will not be held at the same field that was used in the Field of Dreams movie. Instead it will be held at a ballpark with the standard MLB dimensions (335 feet down the lines; 380 feet to the alleys; and 400 feet to dead center). The ballpark was constructor on the northern perimeter of the cornfield from the Field of Dreams movie, and there is a pathway through the cornfield that leads to the ballpark, as well as a right-field wall with windows that shows the cornfield. The second MLB Field of Dreams Game was held in 2022 between the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds. How can fans watch the MLB Field of Dreams Game 2022 live?

Smyly pitched five scoreless innings, allowing four hits and two walks while striking out nine of the 22 batters he faced.

John took time during tonight’s broadcast to remember his father and look back on the memories they shared together.— FOX Sports: MLB (@MLBONFOX) pic.twitter.com/6VcNsyNEAq August 12, 2022 Fox is doing a good job on the broadcast highlighting the ballpark, the area, the connections of the state of Iowa to baseball, integrating players in the game on the mic and bringing in Hall of Famers Johnny Bench and Fergie Jenkins to the booth. I just wonder if the element of two bad teams is going to hurt them in ratings. The Cubs will bring in Brandon Hughes in hopes of putting out the fire. We're in the top of the eighth and there hasn't been a home run yet tonight. He got a groundout, flyout and then struck out Joey Votto looking to end the threat. Earlier this week Hall of Famer Frank Thomas, a part owner of the Field of Dreams complex, suggested construction could get in the way of MLB hosting the game in 2023. The Cubs have won the second Field of Dreams game, 4-2. He exited the game and was replaced by the aforementioned Reynolds to begin the bottom of the fourth. Remarkably, he ended up remaining in the game and playing out the string. Smyly surrendered four hits and two walks while striking out nine of the 22 batters he faced. The Reds put two runners on base in each of the first three innings but were unable to convert any of them into runs.

A three-run first inning propelled the Chicago Cubs to victory over the Cincinnati Reds in the Field of Dreams game in Dyersville, Iowa.

There won’t be a Field of Dreams game in 2023 because of construction, according to Hall of Famer Frank Thomas, who is the chief operating officer of the field’s ownership group. It’s what the film was about and why so many people wanted to be a part of the sold-out crowd of 7,823 in rural Iowa. Take away the pomp and production and “this is as pure of baseball as you’re going to get,” said assistant pitching coach Eric Jagers, an Iowa native. I’m happier for our players to get to do that.” Bench caught the ceremonial first pitch from Cubs great Fergie Jenkins. In the crowd sat dozens of former Major Leaguers, a U.S. Senator and Hall of Famer broadcaster Marty Brennaman. “The playoff picture has eluded us. It was fun walking through the tunnels, crossing paths with a fan, a special guest today, a Hall of Famer, a player from the other team. "It was a special moment for me in my career," Reynolds said. "It was a great experience. About 25 minutes after all the pregame events started, Lodolo gave up three consecutive run-scoring hits in the top of the first inning of a 4-2 loss. The rookie left-hander had one of the tougher tasks. It was done with hundreds of media credentials and this makeshift little city behind the scenes.

The corn field-covered grounds that were made famous by the 1989 Kevin Costner film always make for a great baseball setting — and this year has been no ...

The Chicago Cubs beat the Cincinnati Reds, 4-2, on Thursday, but that was hardly the point. Major League Baseball had once again found its way to Dyersville ...

“You’re just out there playing baseball in the middle of Iowa.” Last year, the Yankees and the Chicago White Sox had faced off in the first of this now annual event, which is Major League Baseball’s answer to the N.H.L.’s outdoor games. As for the baseball, the Cubs stayed on the vintage theme by taking a 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning with a hit-by-pitch, two doubles and a single.
