Revealing mistake: At Fenway, when Ray sees the scoreboard cycling through images, watch the crowd below the scoreboard. They jump as if the scene cuts or is looped.
Revealing mistake: The time on the scoreboard clock when Ray hears the "go the distance" message changes from 10:30 to 10:32 in a matter of seconds.
Continuity mistake: The sun changes constantly during the "people will come" sequence. Particularly, long shots of Shoeless Joe and Ray. The sun is overhead and deeper in the west in the space of seconds.
Visible crew/equipment: Ray and Annie are talking about going to Boston and the camera is tracking through their home. The camera is reflected in a picture hanging on a wall in the kitchen as the shot passes it.
Factual error: The catcher appears with the other players when they come out of the corn. The catcher was never included in the scandal, nor was a catcher banned.
Answer: If they go past that line they will no longer be able to play again. The field is their only place to exist in the afterlife (their heaven if you will). That line is the end of the field and they will not be able to return if they cross it.
Scrappy
So do the players not go after foul ball fly balls/pop ups along the first base side?
