So will this FoD game be an annual thing now?

Yes, altho it appears that the game will feature rotating teams. I thought initially that it would always be the White Sox vs a different team each season, but apparently this is not the case.

Can't wait for TB v Pittsburg in Iowa!

These would be epic...

Dodgers - Giants
Cubs - Cards
Mets - Phils
A's - Bosox

Those would all definitely be good.

Throw in the two subway series of White Sox v Cubs and Metsies v Yankees too. Can't go wrong with any of those combos.

Rumor has it that it will be the Cubs & Cards next season. I think also any game involving the combo of Twins, Brewers, and Cards would do very well, being they are each geographically aligned near Dyersville. I'm sure there are a lot of fans of all three teams, especially the Cards and Twins in the area.

So it turns out that the Sox-Yanks FoD game garnered the highest TV ratings for a regular season game in 16 years, which goes back to 2005. Hmmm, what happened in MLB that year?????

so ... which game in 2005 had higher ratings?

I watched the replay of that HR and his rounding the bases at least 30 times.

Kudos to MLB and Fox for last night’s product. Really well done.

Highest rated regular season game in 15 years. Of course, part of that is novelty. Every year the interest will fade a bit after this.

The article never stated which game it was.

'Field of Dreams' baseball game was a ratings win for Fox with 5.9 million viewers

The Chicago White Sox beat the New York Yankees, 9-8, in a Hollywood-like ending in MLB's Field of Dreams game.

Looks like it was Yankees-Red Sox, October 1st, 2005.

The Sox have their work cut out for them tonite. It's Cease vs Taillon and the latter has been on a tear lately. In fact, possibly the hottest pitcher in the majors for the past month. Let's hope the mojo from Thursday carries over.
