Dyersville, Iowa • Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred traveled to the "Field of Dreams" movie site in eastern Iowa to announce this year's National Baseball Hall of Fame tour stops in six cities.

The Telegraph Herald reports (http://bit.ly/1RuT595 ) Manfred was joined by 2015 Hall of Fame pitcher John Smoltz in Dyersville to announce that Davenport, Iowa; Kansas City, Missouri; Milwaukee; St. Louis; Minneapolis; and Las Vegas will be host cities for this year's "We Are Baseball" tour stops.

Hundreds came to hear the announcement at the site of the 1989 movie. Manfred told attendees that the league wants to bring baseball's history to its fans because not everyone can make it to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York.

The tour will begin July 3-10 at Davenport's baseball stadium.
