White Sox Beat Yankees With Walk-Off Homer in Wild 'Field of Dreams' Game

With Major League Baseball playing a game in the state of Iowa for the first time ever in a celebration of 1989 sports drama Field of Dreams, it's only fitting that Thursday night's game between the White Sox and Yankees featured a Hollywood ending.

After blowing a three-run lead in the top of the ninth inning, the White Sox won thanks to a walk-off, two-run homer by Tim Anderson in the bottom of the ninth to seal a wild 9-8 win over the Yankees.

Chicago led, 7-4, in the top of the ninth inning when things began to unravel for All-Star closer Liam Hendriks.
