Today is the 100th anniversary of Archibald Graham's brief appearance in Major League Baseball. The Twins have made it Moonlight Graham Day at the Metrodome with an afternoon game against KC. When I first saw the movie Field of Dreams I thought he was a fictional character but I soon learned he was in fact a doctor in Chisholm, MN for many years. There's a pretty good story and some photos in the Strib today, linked above.
Maybe I should hop on down there. Now what did I do with that Burt Lancaster mask?
That's the coolest thing I read in a long time. I also thought Moonlight Graham was fictional.

Doc Graham was a class act.
