(Dyersville, IA) — The Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds will play on the Field of Dreams in Dyersville on Thursday night, but last night (Tuesday) marked the first time two minor league baseball teams competed on the iconic field. And it was an all-Iowa contest between the Quad City River Bandits and the Cedar Rapids Kernels. However, both teams changed their names to what they were back in the early 20th Century — the Davenport Blue Sox and the Cedar Rapids Bunnies. They also wore throwback uniforms featuring the former mascots. As for the game itself — the Davenport Blue Sox beat the Cedar Rapids Bunnies seven to two.
