In a surprise appereance…Shoeless Joe Jackson, who is from Greenville, SC, made a apperance for the opening of the Greenville Drive. The Drive defeated the Catfish with a 6-1 victory. The Drive are part of the Red Sox organization and are a single A team. The stadium has a little green monster of their own, see pic, which some guy from the other team hit a homer over. It truly was a great venue with a kids playground area, Shoeless Joe’s actual house is right outside the stadium, they had cheap food / beer and a grassy area in the outfield if you want to sit and watch the game.
Check out the pics above of the venue and look for more from the Drive later on.
