Official Announcement – Field of Dreams Journalist

Introducing Grantland Rice: The Official Voice of Baseball’s Poetic Soul



In keeping with the tradition of celebrating baseball’s history and majesty, the Field of Dreams is proud to welcome Grantland Rice as its official journalist. Known for his timeless command of words, Rice will provide eloquent, enduring reflections after each game — bringing the romance, grandeur, and gravitas of classic baseball writing to the modern stage.

Opening Remarks from Grantland Rice

*"Baseball is not merely a game; it is the story of America told on sunlit diamonds and under autumn skies. I am honored to join the Field of Dreams, where eras collide and legends walk once more. My task will be simple, yet sacred — to bear witness. To capture not only the score and the statistics, but the pulse, the poetry, the immortal echoes that make each contest eternal.

I have walked alongside the heroes of the past, chronicling the feats of Babe Ruth, Walter Johnson, and Ty Cobb. Now, I shall walk again — but across all time, in this grand stage where the deadball artist duels the modern slugger, where Crosley Field answers Dodger Stadium.

You will find me not in the box score alone, but in the sweep of narrative, in the cadence of myth. After every game, I will give voice to the eternal story. For the Field of Dreams is not just competition — it is baseball’s great cathedral, and I am its humble chronicler."*
