'Field of Dreams' Game: Kevin Costner Cusses on Live TV Pregame Show

Actor Kevin Costner joined the Fox baseball crew ahead of the first Major League Baseball game in Iowa, right where the location "Field of Dreams" was filmed. On the live pregame set, Costner let a curse word through, and he immediately apologized for his error.

Costner was brought onto the pregame set to bring back his thoughts on the movie, filming in Iowa and getting the chance to throw a baseball on the cornfield with his own son. It was a full-circle moment for Costner, who played Ray Kinsella in the movie, a character who played a game of catch with his father at the end of the iconic 1989 movie, which many consider to be one of the best baseball movies ever made.

When asked about the moment of throwing with his real-life son on the field, Costner let a curse word slide.

"I wanted to have that moment with him," Costner said while chatting with Alex Rodriguez on the set. "Because we played since he was little. That's all we do in our house is just throw sh**. We just throw anything. It turns into a game, right?"

Costner then turned to his left and interrupted himself.

"I'm so sorry," Costner said.

Someone off camera said, "That's OK."

The cornfield in Dyersville, Iowa, is home to the state's first-ever Major League Baseball game Thursday night as the New York Yankees take on the Chicago White Sox.

Costner eventually left the broadcast set and made his way to the field, emerging from the cornfield like the characters in the movie.

After that, players from both the Yankees and White Sox also appeared from out of nowhere—from the corn rows in center field.

Costner then addressed the crowd, asking them: "Is this heaven?" The crowd cheered wildly, but not giving him the response he wanted.

"Let me ask you again. Is this heaven?"

The crowd was so loud in their response that perhaps all of Iowa and western Illinois could hear them.

"No, this is Iowa," they answered.

The game is being played at a specially-built stadium near the movie's ball field. The stadium can hold up to 8,000 spectators, and fans attending the Thursday game had to maneuver through a cornfield maze to get to the stadium.

The corn field was the setting for the 1989 movie "Field of Dreams." The movie's main character, Ray Kinsella (played by Kevin Costner), hears voices in the corn field that tell him to build a baseball field there.

"If you build it, he will come," says the voice.

Kinsella convinces his wife to let him build a baseball field so it can bring disgraced baseball star "Shoeless" Joe Jackson back to life so he can play ball again. Jackson (played by Ray Liotta) eventually shows up, and then brings along the other seven Chicago White Sox players who threw the 1919 World Series against the Cincinnati Reds.

Kinsella went on the road to bring back an author (played by James Earl Jones) and the younger version of a deceased baseball player from the 1920s. During that time, the eight White Sox players brought players from other teams to the field so they could have a real game instead of just practices.

The field in Iowa was designed after the Comiskey Park field where the White Sox played their games from 1910-1990. The White Sox on Thursday will wear jerseys that reflect the early 20th century uniforms (sans the Nike swoosh).

Lance Lynn will be the starting pitcher for the White Sox, and Andrew Heaney will take the mound for the Yankees. The game is still meaningful as well. The White Sox (67-48) lead the AL Central by 11 games over the Cleveland Indians. The Yankees (63-51) are six games back in the AL East behind the division-leading Tampa Bay Rays.
