Baseball’s homage to “The Man of Dreams”: White Sox and Yankees compete on the pitch of the cult film

“If you build it, it will come back.” Major League Baseball took the most famous phrase from the movie “The Man of Dreams” literally. The 1989 film, starring Kevin Kostner, is a cult for baseball fans, so much so that the set – near Dyersville, Iowa – has remained intact and has become a museum visited by many fans. Nearby, the American League has built a temporary 8,000-seat facility that on August 12 will host the game between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Yankees, initially scheduled for 2020 but then postponed for a year due to the pandemic.
