"The Twins have been tapped to play in the Field of Dreams game in Dyersville, Iowa, an industry source confirmed, hosting the Philadelphia Phillies in a game is expected to take place in August. The game will be played at the site which the 1989 Kevin Costner baseball classic was filmed, about four hours south of the Twin Cities. It will be the third major league"
"The first Field of Dreams game turned out to be one of the more memorable games in Major League Baseball history, starting with Costner emerging from the cornfields and walking onto the field of play before the White Sox and Yankees followed. It ended with the Yankees scoring four runs in the ninth inning before Tim Anderson hit a walk-off home run that disappeared into the corn stalks."
The Minnesota Twins will host the Philadelphia Phillies in the Field of Dreams game in Dyersville, Iowa, expected to take place in August at the 1989 Kevin Costner film site about four hours south of the Twin Cities. The event will mark the third major league game in Iowa; previous games used a temporary 7,800-seat stadium. A permanent stadium with expanded youth fields and other amenities is under construction and is expected to have a smaller capacity. The first Field of Dreams game produced memorable moments including Costner emerging from the cornfields and Tim Anderson's walk-off home run.
