Shoeless Joe's vantage point

Sometimes I wonder what Shoeless Joe was thinking as he hung out amid the corn stalks beyond left field.

Maybe it felt a little like this.

As I stood on the outside looking in, I thought about what a privilege it is to live near a ballyard steeped in such history. It’s called Labatt Memorial Park, but it’s easy to understand if Londoners see it as our own Field of Dreams.

I think more random wanderings beyond the outfield fence are called for. Shoeless Joe would doubtless approve.
