Sid Luckman Ballfield
















If you're in luck, you're playing ball on the Sid Luckman field, and if you are really lucky, you play like he did. Not so lucky, well, just behind it lies the Washington Cemetery, the part of it that lies North of the F line. I shot this from the train, you can kind of see the impressions of the dirty glass of the car windows which bear scratch marks and some stuff that looks like dried snot, like the marks a dog's nose make on a car window.

I can't tell if those beige areas are sand on the astro turf or places where the players have worn through it. They look like small islands in a blazing green lake. So much color next to so much grey.
