If they design it, you will buy.
MLB has unveiled the throwback uniforms for this season’s “Field of Dreams” game.
This year’s game between the Cubs and Reds will take place 7 p.m. Thursday in Dyersville, Iowa, at the site of the filming of the 1989 classic baseball movie “Field of Dreams.”
The game will be aired on Fox-32 and 670-AM.
Last year’s inaugural edition was a sepia-toned, nostalgic-inducing success with the White Sox defeating the Yankees, 9-8, on Aug. 12, 2021.
For this year’s game, Major League Baseball again unveiled jerseys for the game that have a look that evokes early 20th-century gear.
The Cubs, who will be designated the visiting team, will be combining looks from the late 1920s with hats from 1914.

Their jerseys will be cream-colored with a small cub holding a bat surrounded a red wishbone-style “C” and navy piping down the front. The navy cap will feature a small white cub holding a baseball bat.
The team wore similar jerseys as its home uniforms from 1927-29. The major difference was color — the home jerseys were white rather than cream.
The navy hat, made by New Era, displays the white cub-with-a-bat logo, which appeared in road uniforms during the 1914 season.
The Reds will be in white jerseys with red stripes and the word “REDS” surrounded by a wishbone “C” over the left breast. They wore this look starting in 1914 and continued on and off through the ’20s. The hats will be white with red stripes, a thick red band surrounding the base of the cap and a red stylized “C.”
Authentic and replica jerseys and hats are now available for purchase at MLBshop.com.
