It has been a game in the making since the 1989 Kevin Costner hit movie Field of Dreams, a real Major League Baseball game played on the site of the legendary Iowa cornfield.
The game was between the New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox. The Yankees were Costner’s movie dad’s favorite team and the final scene in the movie showed Costner playing a game of catch with his dad in a Yankees uniform. The other team, the White Sox represented the 1919 “Black Sox”, where eight players were kicked out of baseball for allegedly throwing the World Series.
Yankees slugger Aaron Judge christened the field of dreams as the “House that Judge Built” after launching a 1-2 pitch deep into the rightfield cornfield. The three-run shot gave the Yankees a 3-1 lead over the White Sox.
