If you design it, they will come. Or something.
While this year’s Field of Dreams Game matchup between the Cubs and Reds isn’t going to be particularly sexy, the uniforms they’ll be wearing are.
As with the inaugural edition of the game held in the Iowa cornfields, this year’s Field of Dreams Game features some unique duds that offer a peek back in time for two of MLB’s most historic franchises. This, of course, plays to the old-timey feel of the 1989 film, “Field of Dreams.”
