A nice, old short story about a tree in the field of play. I believe it was Savannah or Augusta at a minors' park. Shoeless Joe or Cobb once played there as amateurs... Magnolias are so beautiful, they didn't want to chop it down?

I once went looking for Joe's old ball park (Municipal Stadium I believe) on Henry St. Savannah but returned empty handed. None of the many locals asked knew of such a park either.

Cool topic Julie
