Major League Baseball’s move to hold a game at the Field of Dreams turned out to be a smart one.
The game — held in the Dyersville, Iowa, cornfield made famous by the 1989 Kevin Costner movie “Field of Dreams” on Thursday night — between the New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox turned out to be the most watched regular season baseball game since 2005.
The #MLBatFieldofDreams was the most-watched regular season baseball game in 16 years, with 5,903,000 viewers across FOX and FOX Deportes u26beufe0f
