Major League Baseball’s inaugural Field of Dreams game last summer was a hit. The Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds followed it up with a less-memorable game near Dyersvillle on Thursday night, but it was still a beautiful night for baseball at an iconic setting in Iowa.
The two teams comprising the sequel weren’t in playoff contention and no one homered into the cornfields in the Cubs’ 4-2 win. A hologram of Harry Caray showed up for the seventh-inning stretch, a full moon provided some natural light and the drone shots continued to be stunning.
Follow along with our live updates throughout the night for the latest highlights and reaction.
