OT: Field Of Dreams Game Tonight
- Thread starter jibsey

I would be all for Judge and Stanton tossing him into the cornfield along with Heaney and the pen.

I haven't followed them closely this season but it seems every time I check in the bullpen blows it. This group has the anti-clutch gene. Could be the South Siders year.

Yep. They’ve blown 5 saves since Chapman went on the IL. You still need a solid 7/8 inning guy, they don’t have it.

He spoiled Yankees fans. Most of us didn’t even realize how good he was until he was gone.
And yes, probably.

My daughter and son in law are early 40's, never saw it. I tried best I could to tell them but it didn't register. Damn, Burt Lancaster was good!

Isn’t that the same RF dimension as Yankee Stadium?

I think we've determined earlier in thread that you could hit one out with a fungo bat
My original thought, but then in reconsidering it, seating capacity was less than a typical little league field, so that, with the very short dimensions, it makes sense to keep the original intact and build the second, assuming this is an annual thing and used for more purposes than just the one game.a second field built into the corn is borderline offensive.

Despite the loss, that was a really fun game. Probably the most fun I've had watching a regular season Yankees game in a long time. The game itself was very interesting, but even in the down moments, I found all of the novelty of it all so much fun. Great job by the MLB.

What a gold mine mixing movies with sports. Costner I'm sure will be involved for a long time and will certainly name his price and make it another entertainment highlight that will make people come.MLB commissioner confirms Field of Dreams game will return in 2022

Maybe see a spinoff of Roy Hobbs, or maybe even see this taken to other sports in a different fashion.
Can we do anything with Caddyshack and a gopher?

Revive the Boneyard Cup, get a stuffed gopher, and get Coach Murray to convince his bother to make a cameo as Spackler.
it has to be done.

Last night was a great event, but not sure I like the idea of doing the exact same thing again.MLB commissioner confirms Field of Dreams game will return in 2022

However, all in on MLB doing a version of the NHL's Winter Classic - would love to see the Diamondbacks vs. Rockies at the Grand Canyon (with home runs going into the canyon), Tampa v. Miami in Key West, Red Sox v. Yankees at a Cape Cod beach, Mets v. Phillies at the NJ shore, etc...

Makes sense. There are at least six teams with fan bases in Iowa: ChiSox, Cubs, Cards, Twins, Brewers, Royals, some of which still operate minor league teams in Iowa. So rotating those six as "home" teams, this could go on awhile.MLB commissioner confirms Field of Dreams game will return in 2022

2:32-2:34 --> Stanton with corn in his back pocket. The whole intro was super cool although I wish Liotta was there. I understand he looks like a gargoyle nowadays, but his character was integral to that movie.

The last BYC was worse than Caddyshack. More alcohol. Tipped carts. Cannon fire. Made Bushwood look like schoolgirls.

Let’s do another one! Are there any courses we aren’t barred from?

There were a total of 14 baseball games played yesterday. I don’t deny that football gets great ratings. It’s just that comparing a single football game to a single game baseball game is a bit deceptive.
Fox promoted the hell out of the Field of dreams game. So much so that, I a non baseball fan that barely watches TV was aware of the game. Vs the Hall of fame exhibition game that I saw no promos for. Don't they broadcast the baseball post season on secondary networks now?
