Four A-10s take off from Whiteman AFB, Mo., for a flyover before Major League Baseball’s “Field of Dreams” game tonight in Iowa. (SSgt. Kristin Cerri\/Air Force)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n

When the Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees square off for a baseball game on the \u201cField of Dreams\u201d in Iowa Thursday evening, they will be welcomed by a four-ship flight of A-10 Thunderbolt IIs from Whiteman Air Force Base, Mo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Warthog pilots, assigned to the 303rd Fighter Squadron, took off from Whiteman Air Force Base Wednesday and headed to Dyersville, Iowa, for a flyover before the 6 p.m. EDT nationally televised game on Fox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s more, all four pilots hail from Iowa themselves or have family from what fans of the 1989 blockbuster movie know to be \u201cheaven.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

Four A-10s take off from Whiteman AFB, Mo., for a flyover before Major League Baseball’s “Field of Dreams” game tonight in Iowa. (SSgt. Kristin Cerri\/Air Force)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n

Capt. \u201cPistol\u201d Rindels is from Waterloo, Maj. \u201cZero\u201d Carlton from Sioux City, Maj. \u201cJewcy\u201d Berry from Des Moines, and Lt. Col. \u201cDeuce\u201d Siems from Dewitt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than three decades after \u201cField of Dreams\u201d seeped into the country\u2019s cultural consciousness<\/a>, with a one-year delay caused by the pandemic, one of the most famous cornfields in Hollywood history finally gets the opportunity to host real major league ball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIs this heaven?\u201d the ghost of John Kinsella asked in the movie that inspired the game to be played Thursday next to the actual site used in the 1989 film<\/a>, which is maintained as a tourist attraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNo, it\u2019s Iowa,\u201d dutiful farmer Ray Kinsella \u2014 played by Kevin Costner \u2014 responded to his father with a smile before they played catch under the lights in the movie\u2019s most poignant scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week, the ball playing isn\u2019t fiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proud and quintessential Midwestern state, usually only in the spotlight every four years during presidential campaigns, will be hosting a Major League Baseball game for the first time when the White Sox and Yankees play at a temporary venue built for about 8,000 fans in tiny Dyersville<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four A-10 Thunderbolt IIs from Whiteman Air Force Base, Mo., will conduct a flyover before Major League Baseball’s “Field of Dreams” game at 6 p.m. EST Thursday in Iowa. The pilots, who all have ties to Iowa, are, from left, Capt. \u201cPistol\u201d Rindels, Maj. \u201cZero\u201d Carlton, Maj. \u201cJewcy\u201d Berry and Lt. Col. \u201cDeuce\u201d Siems. (Staff Sgt. Kristin Cerri\/Air Force)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The event, part of MLB\u2019s increased effort to grow the game by setting up shop in places without in-person access<\/a> to the highest level of the sport, has been in the works for years. The original plan to play in 2020 was postponed when the coronavirus forced a shortened schedule<\/a> at mostly empty ballparks, but if the White Sox, the Yankees or the Iowans became impatient then they were out of step with the spirit of the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe one constant through all the years,\u201d as the sage author Terence Mann declared to Ray Kinsella in the film, \u201chas been baseball.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
