The Parkhurst Field opened in 1906 and was home to the New York State League's J.A.G.'s (Johnstown-Amsterdam-Gloversville) minor league affiliate of the Brooklyn Superbas. One of the central characters in the 1989 movie "Field of Dreams" was "Moonlight Doc Graham". He played on this field in 1907. He was a baseball player and a doctor with hopes to play in the big leagues. The Parkhurst Field has been home to Guilderland Little League and has just begun a major transformation. The $3.6 million project will be completed by 2023 transforming it into a destination for travel little league teams and honoring its rich baseball history. Check out the renderings of what the complex will look like. It's amazing.fac

A scratch-off from the New York Lottery sold at a local Stewarts Shop and paid off for one area resident in a big way.  The scratch-off ticket called "Make My Month" hit for a cool million bucks recently and while the resident has yet to be announced, things are about to change for one lucky Capital Region native on Wednesday.

It started in Whitehall and now towns all over the Capital Region are jumping on board, applying for an HGTV "Takeover."
