Kevin Costner revealed that when they were filming For Love of the Game, then-Yankees owner George Steinbrenner refused to let them use Yankee Stadium because the Yankees lost in the movie.

Kevin Costner: I call up George. He's a legendary guy, difficult guy, and I wasn't certain how I was going to go about doing this, but so much was riding on it.

And so I called him up and I said, "Hello, George."

He goes, "Hello, Kev!"
And I said, "Hi, George."

He goes, "What do you need, Kev?"
And I said, "Well, George, we're not... it sounds like we can't come to Yankee Stadium."

He goes, "That's right!"
And I'm thinking to myself, Where's my dad? I need somebody to help me with this. I don't know what to say to this guy.

I said, "George, but we had a contract."
He goes, "I know that, but I can't let it happen, Kev."

And I said, "All right, George, you want to explain that to me, why?"
He goes, "Well, the Yankees lose."
"The Yankees what?"
"They lose. Can't let that happen, Kev."

@shegone03 @MLB @notgaetti Awesome! Now take me to a game!

@shegone03 Teams have shown that they are little more than a business. It is all about identifying your market and selling to it. This team chose this demographic. You do you - but your choices have ramifications.
