On the face of it, MLB’s announcement that the Chicago White Sox would be hosting the New York Yankees in a game held on the Field of Dreams movie site in Iowa is a pretty cool thing.
In the space of a year, MLB will build the stadium, as the game will be played on Aug. 13, 2020. And the park — as this is considered a home White Sox game — will pay some sort of tribute to Comiskey Park, home of the White Sox for 80 years last century. MLB is saying that tribute comes in the forms of “the shape of the outfield” and the bullpens in center field.
