In 2019, [[Major League Baseball]] announced that it would hold a [[MLB at Field of Dreams|neutral-site regular season game]] between the [[Chicago White Sox]] and [[New York Yankees]] at the Dyersville site on August 13, 2020, playing on an 8,000-seat field constructed adjacent to the original, with a pathway connecting the two. The field would be modeled after the White Sox's former field, [[Comiskey Park]] (1910–1990).<ref>{{cite news |first= Anthony |last= Castovince |title= Yanks, White Sox to play at "Field of Dreams" in 2020 |url= https://www.mlb.com/news/yankees-white-sox-game-at-field-of-dream-site |publisher= [[Major League Baseball]] |location= Milwaukee |date= August 8, 2019 |access-date= August 8, 2019 |archive-date= August 10, 2019 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20190810101824/https://www.mlb.com/news/yankees-white-sox-game-at-field-of-dream-site |url-status= live }}</ref> In July 2020, because of the shortened [[2020 Major League Baseball season]] due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic in North America|COVID-19 pandemic]], it was announced that the White Sox would be playing the [[St. Louis Cardinals]] instead of the Yankees.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-07-01|title=Cardinals will be White Sox' opponent in Field of Dreams game|url=https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox/2020/7/1/21310346/white-sox-cardinals-field-of-dreams-game-mlb-iowa|website=oregonlive|publisher=The Associated Press|language=en|access-date=July 8, 2020|archive-date=July 2, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200702193800/https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox/2020/7/1/21310346/white-sox-cardinals-field-of-dreams-game-mlb-iowa|url-status=live}}</ref> On August 3, 2020, Major League Baseball announced that the 2020 game was cancelled due to logistics.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/sports/chicago-baseball/report-mlb-cancels-field-of-dreams-game-between-white-sox-cardinals/2316113/ |title=Report: MLB Cancels 'Field of Dreams' Game Between White Sox, Cardinals |date=August 3, 2020 |access-date=August 3, 2020 |archive-date=August 4, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200804003604/https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/sports/chicago-baseball/report-mlb-cancels-field-of-dreams-game-between-white-sox-cardinals/2316113/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

A second Field of Dreams game was played during the 2022 season on August 11 with the [[Cincinnati Reds]] – who beat the White Sox in the [[1919 World Series]] that was marred by the Black Sox Scandal – facing the [[Chicago Cubs]], with the Cubs winning 4–2. This time, the movie was referenced in the pregame ceremonies by [[Ken Griffey Jr.]] asking his father [[Ken Griffey Sr.]] if he wanted to play catch. Both Griffeys – who played for the Reds and also played together for the [[Seattle Mariners]] – were joined first by fathers and sons (and daughters) also playing catch. The Cubs and Reds then also entered from the cornfield beyond centerfield along with multiple [[National Baseball Hall of Fame]] members representing both teams – catcher [[Johnny Bench]] and shortstop [[Barry Larkin]] for the Reds along with second baseman [[Ryne Sandberg]], outfielder [[Andre Dawson]], pitcher [[Ferguson Jenkins]] and left fielder [[Billy Williams]] for the Cubs. Jenkins also threw the [[ceremonial first pitch]] to Bench.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.mlb.com/news/ken-griffey-father-son-catch-field-of-dreams-game |title=Griffeys set the tone in Iowa: 'Dad, wanna have a catch?' |first=Mark |last=Sheldon |website=MLB.com |date=August 11, 2022 |accessdate=August 12, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Cincinnati Reds, Chicago Cubs to play at Field of Dreams site in 2022 |url=https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/32057529/cincinnati-reds-chicago-cubs-play-field-dreams-site-2022 |website=ESPN.com |date=August 20, 2021 |access-date=21 August 2021}}</ref>
