While walking through his cornfield, Ray hears a voice whisper, "If you build it, he will come" (often misquoted as "If you build it, they will come"), and sees a vision of a baseball field. Believing he is somehow being asked to build it, and fearing he is in danger of "turning into" his father—whom he resented for his lack of spontaneity—Ray strongly wishes to do so. Although skeptical, Annie is supportive. Watched by disbelieving neighbors, Ray plows under his corn and builds the field. A year passes without incident.
Ray and Annie are eventually forced to consider replacing the field with corn to stay financially solvent. At this point Karin sees a man on the ballfield who Ray discovers is Shoeless Joe Jackson (Ray Liotta), a baseball player idolized by his father. Joe is thrilled to be able to play baseball again and asks to bring others with him to the field. He later returns with the seven other players banned in the 1919 Black Sox scandal, emerging from the corn by the outfield.
Soon after, Ray is told by his brother-in-law Mark (Timothy Busfield)—who cannot see the players—that he will go bankrupt unless he replants the crop. Ray later hears the voice, which had been silent since Ray began building the baseball field, say "Ease his pain." After attending a PTA Meeting which involves a heated discussion over the books of 1960s author and activist Terence Mann (James Earl Jones), Ray decides the voice is referring to Mann who has since become a recluse. Mann wrote that as a child he dreamed of playing with the Dodgers at Ebbets Field but was never able to do so. Although reluctant to agree to another expensive flight of fancy, Annie agrees that Ray should seek out the author in Boston, after Annie and Ray share a dream of the two men watching a baseball game together.
Although Mann rebuffs Ray's initial approaches, Ray eventually persuades him to attend an Oakland Athletics vs. Boston Red Sox baseball game at Fenway Park. Ray hears the voice again, which urges him to "go the distance." While looking at the scoreboard, he sees a statistic for a 1922 baseball player named Archibald "Moonlight" Graham (Burt Lancaster), who played one major league game for the New York Giants, but never was given a turn at bat. Mann initially claims he does not see the special vision. However, as Ray prepares to leave Boston, Mann stops him. Mann did see the vision, and to his own surprise, wants to find out more about its significance. The two travel to Minnesota to find Graham.
