It's supposed to be a baseball movie, but it's more than just that. It's a magical trip through a baseball wonderland designed to leave audiences with many different interpetations of its John Pareles meaning and context.

So there it stands, a baseball field in the middle of a 100 acre cornfield. The neighbors can't understand why its there, especially when it drained them of all their cash and the bank is now ready to foreclose on their farm. Of course if they could see the 1919 WhiteSoxs playing on the field they might have second thoughts, but unfor­ tunately only Ray, his family, and anyone else in his dream who believes can see them.
