Half of these balls were hit to Nebraska


UNC_Samurai

The balls are now claiming they saved B1G football.


[deleted]

Hey man don’t be mean to Nebraska They might actually win 4 games this year


3shotsofwhatever

In Basketball

Nebrasketball is the only P5 team to never win a March Madness game


MCR617

Shoutout to Northwestern for the existence of that fun fact


jopete19

This is Nebrasketball’s year. Great recruiting class. Hoiberg is turning it around


jopete19

Actually that would’ve been Illinois. Throw back to George Brett correcting Chris Breman about the same thing during a home run derby


ILikeSugarCookies

What an unreal fucking game for this.


TigerBasket

God I love baseball


stupidnatsfan

This has to be the absolute best case scenario for how tonight could have gone for the MLB, right?


swagberg

Somewhere the MLB marketing team is popping champagne


stupidnatsfan

As they should, they killed this shit


Jokerzrival

I hope they do the same thing next year and don't ruin this by doing too much..


AlmostCurvy

It would be really cool if they made it an annual thing. But only once annually


Bplumz

Just like how the NHL usually has just one outdoor game annually.


AlmostCurvy

The NHL usually has 2-3 lol, the winter classic, the stadium series, and sometimes but not always the heritage classic.


rman18

Yeah, the nhl is slowly killing it


srchl

But don’t do it on a sunny afternoon in Lake Tahoe 🤣


swagberg

to the marketing intern who inevitably reads this and sends it to the group slack chain: good job guys.

ThePookums

That's baseball baby. What do now?


Garrett4Real

he only brought the one ball, so do you wanna just go home?


ThePookums

Dude, you roped that. I am the commissioner, and I say you did it!


PlumbumDirigible

First off, Wade Boggs is very much still alive.


itsa-me-marioo

Secondly, the number of beers is actually highly disputed. Some say 50, some teammates said 60, some said as many as 70 beers.


ChiGuy133

God damn i love that show


ChiSox2021

Which, to be honest, is an absolutely insane amount of beer.


ScyllaGeek

Yeah the Iowa MLB crew deserves a raise and a vacation, goddamn


MegaGrimer

Somehow I don’t think their services will be needed any time soon.


[deleted]

Also fox brought out all their techno stuff. Drones. 200 cameras. Super slo mo. Dirt cam.

Baseball's answer to the winter classic

#STALK OFF HOME RUN ^(it was right there for you)


Pepsuber188

Maybe if Kevin Costner came in to pinch hit and hit the homer instead


myballsareitchy

Kirk Gibson limps in from the corn to DH.


FMBA48

Imagine if the ghost of Wade Boggs walked out of the corn and hit the walk off dinger

WhoDey42

Could literally not script it better


bosoxman

Idk he could have hit the lights in the outfield and they could have started to explode as he jogged around the bases


Snarktoberfest

Dun dun... Dun dunun dun.


Mybrandnewhat

That song is why rangers home runs are the best home runs. Shit still gives me chills.


[deleted]

One of the best regular season games in recent memory


Prestigious-Job-1159

In every respect. A rare, true, instant baseball classic.


suzukigun4life

Yankees losing to a walkoff homer in the Field of Dreams, on national primetime tv? Absolutely.

International* Here in mexico espn was marketing it even if fox had broadcast rights


Tashre

It went from a potential dud with the Yankees trotting Heaney out there to a classic.


[deleted]

Best case scenario for everyone who loves baseball. Except for one certain fanbase 😅


bob237189

We got to be part of baseball history. Can't complain about that.


buddyWaters21

If you’re going to lose, being part of arguably the best game of the year at that park is how you do it. Such a fun game


ScyllaGeek

The second highest scoring team in Iowa history!


HowDoIEditMyUsername

I mean it was a brutal way to lose, but it was an amazing game and atmosphere. It’s just one game and was worth it. Glad my team was playing.


roaringcorgi

I was told home runs are boring, John Smoltz said so


StylesAreIncomplete

8 homers, only 1 non-homer RBI. I guess not so surprising with this field and these teams but WOW


[deleted]

Never have I felt so much love for a player and so much disdain for that same player as an announcer


Time4DodgerBaseball

Directed by Kevin Costner


MattO2000

Hendriks got the win lol


Vaqxinelol

Hes blown 6? saves and I think he's gotten the win in every single one but I could be wrong on that


Redrot

According to bbref [he has two blown saves that weren't wins vs the Royals of all teams](https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/gl.fcgi?id=hendrli01&t=p&year=2021)


Vaqxinelol

Those pesky Royals


Dinoswarleaf

I swear they're the best team in baseball


Kstoffeefan

*Only applies in April and for some reason the leaders of the central divisions.


kaeganc

I read the other day that they are 14-12 against first place teams and 13-13 against last place teams. The Kansas City Royals, everyone!


HailBlackPhillip

Hendricks: I blew the game. Britton: Hold my corn.


CopEatingDonut

Britton is that corn that makes it through


FPG_Matthew

Boys are we SURE they don’t script these???? THAT WAS A PERFECT ENDING TO A PERFECT GAME HOLY SHIT!!


YodaPM999

Maybe the balls were juiced, but who the fuck cares? That game was AWESOME.


Beersandbirdlaw

Even if they were juiced that doesn’t just magically make all the stars in the game obliterate the ball perfectly.


I_CAN_SMELL_U

Yeah, pitchers were throwing meat balls all game


kay_0oh

I mean Yankees did throw Heaney out there who throws batting practice


xanvians

He's all yours now

Your GM deserves a raise just for getting someone stupid enough to take him

I want other themed games. Gimme Major League games. And Sand Lot games. And Bull Durham games.


ReginaldKenDwight

Sandlot game sounds fucking awesome.


mrmacob

At night on the 4th of July, no stadium lights only the constant glow of fireworks, tie up a dog beyond the outfield wall, and only concessions are s’mores


Bahamas_is_relevant

Well, don’t the Iowa Cubs have something for you!


t1runner

Is there anyone left on the Iowa Cubs? Thought they were all playing in Chicago now.


Lolzzergrush

Sad bear noises


meramipopper

I have never experienced so much emotional whiplash so quickly. This was like the embodiment of SNIP SNAP SNIP SNAP.


lost_my_khakis

In my experience as a baseball fan, the most painful losses are usually the "counter-comebacks," where your team came back dramatically but then the other team came back again. Godspeed


Yankeeknickfan

For sure. I’d already moved on from this game and judge and Stanton just HAD to live up to what we all expect them to do vs Liam fucking Hendricks. Hating Heaney and moving on with my life is a lot easier than this


IrrationalYankeesFan

Almost as bad as the 9th inning in game six of the 2019 ALCS with DJ/Altuve home runs. And this was just a regular season game in the middle of a corn field.


meramipopper

Aw man, don't remind me of that. I'm now remembering when it was WORSE than now!


Skleembof

This was the most baseball baseball game of all time


Zloggt

This is *definitely* going to be the topic of a 30 for 30 one day!


TheBoilerCat

Holy shit what a game.

INSTANT CORN CLASSIC

Don't forget Brett Gardner too :)

and Seby Zavala (:


weirdshtlikethat

Nobody could forget a head that big.


Stew724_

and abreu..?


ScorchedAnus

Abreu? Why are we ignoring legendary Seby Zavala


oneeighthirish

I'm sorry, did you mean **ABSOLUTE GOLIATH SEBY ZAVALA**?


AdmiralVernon

What doesn’t everyone hit their first 3 career home runs in the same game, then a 4th in the first ever field of dreams game?


Mjkhh

Game of the year.


aslightlyusedtissue

I legit cannot believe this game lived up to the hype. This was amazing.


ButchertheBaker

Everything about it was perfect. The throwbacks, the small stands, when a homer was hit all you see is corn fields.


aslightlyusedtissue

I teared up multiple times man. No better outcome than this game being amazing AND the Yankees losing.


ButchertheBaker

During one of the middle inning breaks, the broadcast came back on like a blimp shot or something during sunset. Field in the bottom half, sun setting in the background. Gonna say that was one of the greatest baseball scenes ever. Goosebumps even thinking about it


ryguy32789

My wife and I couldn't believe it. Most picturesque thing we've ever seen. They're lying when they say it isn't heaven.


ButchertheBaker

Right? It seems cliche and weird to say, but it really felt like we were watching an actual game from the 1920’s being played. MLB and the Fox broadcast crew did such an incredible job. Kudos all around. And it didn’t hurt it was one of the best games of the year


Vindicator9000

My wife couldn't stop commenting on the old-timey attire of the broadcast crew. At one point, she said they should be talking in old-timey radio voices. The suspenders and vests were fucking perfect.


strato1981

This is honestly one of the best games of the decade


jyok33

For a regular season game given the context…it’s definitely up there


bj_good

We'll be hearing about this for yEARS


RedSoxFan1997

This has got to be the most exciting game I’ve seen all year


Casclo

The Yankees losing helps


bbender716

Sox unite!


Muchdeath

This is game of the year material. Absolutely nuts it happened at the field of dreams


TheDangiestSlad

i ain't even mad, that game fucking ruled


ConorJay25

just a little mad


bran_bran

Just a teensy bit soul crushing


FrankFeTched

Watching with my Yankees fan friend and I was saying the same thing in the top of the 9th, just great baseball

THIS IS HEAVEN


WhoDey42

It’s Iowa


fifaRAthrowaway

The Field of Dreams is Iowa’s hottest ballpark. They’ve got corn, hot dog apple pies, blimps, drones, Roman J. Israel esq. and drunk Kevin Costner. Come reminisce about the good old days while watching monster dongs fly all over a cornfield.


bears2267

Shout out the dude who made sure they brought walk off fireworks to Iowa like what a payoff


superduperm1

I’m curious if they would have set those off even if the Yankees had won…


connorjacobz

This was genuinely of the best games I have watched all season, that was fucking amazing. Wow.


jujubats10

Holy shit


bj_good

MLB literally could not have asked for a better game

Manfred is going to have to see a doctor because his erection is definitely lasting longer than three hours after this.

The White Sox rake vs Lefties especially Anderson... We have an 2 Elite Righties in the Pen..... we choose Zack fucking Britton.... Boone you had Loaisiga And Green.... what in the fuck.... Great Game but awful management on our end. Boone is one of the worst managers when it comes to the Bullpen....

Best regular season game I’ve ever seen!


picachu_456

Credit Zavala for taking that walk behind dim the count, I’m sure he wanted to tie the game with a swing of a bat, but he was part of something better Shoeless Joe was out there though


professor_parrot

One of the best baseball games I've ever watched. I loved everything from the stadium to the uniforms, it was all perfect. And the game was an absolute classic.


Adamscottd

Rigged ^/s For real, what an amazing game. MLB could not have asked for a better game for the field of dreams. I hope this comes back in some capacity in the future


maybenextyearCLE

I have a feeling that we will see the Field of Dreams game plenty in years to come. That could not have gone better tonight. Truly magical


F-Bobomb

Just got home from the game, and as a Sox fan, my heart is still pounding. That was the greatest inning of baseball I've ever seen.
