Overview

  • The Phillies and Twins are slated to meet in Iowa in 2026, with multiple outlets reporting Minnesota will serve as the home team and the exact date still to be announced.
  • Tuesday’s 2026 schedule release shows a Phillies–Twins series set for Aug. 14–16, positioning the Field of Dreams game within that mid-August window.
  • The matchup marks MLB’s first visit back to Dyersville since 2022 following site ownership changes and redevelopment into a permanent youth baseball complex.
  • An initial USA Today report naming the Mets as the opponent was corrected after subsequent reporting identified the Twins, aligning coverage across major outlets.
  • The event resumes after strong early TV interest in 2021 and 2022 and fits MLB’s broader slate of showcase games that recently included stops at Rickwood Field and Bristol Motor Speedway.
