(Radio Iowa) – The stadium seating Major League Baseball set up at the field it built near the Field of Dreams movie site in Dyersville is coming down – for now. Last week, crews began removing the temporary stands that had been installed for an August 13th match-up between the Chicago White Sox and St. Louis Cardinals. Last week, Major League Baseball announced the game will be postponed until 2021. Roman Weinberg, manager of The Field of Dreams Movie Site, says they knew rescheduling the game was a possibility since the pandemic began in early March.

Weinberg says the plan is to rebuild the stadium, starting next spring, for next year’s game.

Murray Cook of BrightView, the company Major League Baseball hired for the stadium work, told the Dubuque Telegraph Herald much of what was used to construct the stadium was rented and it’d be too expensive to keep it all intact until next year. Meanwhile, in downtown Dyersville, a new museum honoring the Field of Dreams has just opened. It’s called the “If You Build It Exhibit” and highlights the making of the 1989 film. Weinberg was on hand for the museum’s ribbon cutting.
