Cubs’ Marcus Stroman pitches idea for next Field Of Dreams-type event

DYERSVILLE, Iowa – Cubs pitcher Marcus Stroman roamed the Field of Dreams movie set Thursday, snapping photos on his Leica Q2 camera.

He wasn’t pitching, so he could just focus on taking it all in – the setting, his teammate’s reactions, the atmosphere. He also has ideas for what Major League Baseball should do next.

“I think we should do something based around like the Negro League culture,” Stroman said Thursday. “I have a couple of ideas. But we’ll see where it goes. Definitely within the inner-city community, creating an atmosphere within an inner-city community that can be resemblant of the Negro Leagues.
