Field of Dreams uniforms: MLB reveals throwback jerseys for Cubs-Reds game

If they design it, you will buy it.

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 pm 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 by 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.”
