And here are facts about the field:
Dimensions: 335 feet down the lines; 380 feet to the alleys; and 400 feet to dead center.
Nods to Old Comiskey Park: The bullpens, located behind the 12-foot high padded wall in center field, are designed to resemble old Comiskey Park.
Building the Ballpark Has Required: The moving of 30,000 cubic yards of material. The installation of 4,000 tons of sand and 2,000 tons of pea gravel under the Bluegrass blend (legend, blue note and bolt cultivars).
A Game in a Cornfield: A “corn maze” adorned with MLB’s iconic silhouetted batter logo is located beyond the right field fence, near the Field of Dreams Movie Site – part of an immersive fan experience. Iowa-based Musco Lighting is providing a first-of-its-kind LED system that will also spotlight much of the 159 acres of corn that surround the ballpark.The right field fence has a unique design that accentuates the corn through a fine mesh seven-foot high green chain link fence with offset vertical support posts – meaning the posts will actually be in the corn. The stalks that produce field corn will grow 10-12 feet high. A manual scoreboard will be in the corn just behind the right field fence.
