Beyond the Fence is a slice of Americana at its irreverent best . . . A story of baseball played out on hard scrabble fields under the municipal lights of Wisconsin . . . An honest and unapologetic examination of the young and not-so-young men who refuse to grow old gracefully . . . It will make you want to cash in that big league ticket and spend the evening in the bleachers with a beer, watching the game as it was intended to be played.
