Man freaks out wife in bed with all his baseball hero tats

4/26/2012

It's never been clear where "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and the slew of other historic baseball figures wander off to at the end of "Field of Dreams," but they may have been headed to take their spots on this guy's body. After spending about $10,000 over the last year, 39-year-old nuclear operator Mike McWain sports incredibly lifelike depictions of Jackson, Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, Lou Gehrig, and others across his back, shoulders and arms. There's only one problem. The images are so realistic that his wife, Marcy, sometimes gets freaked out at seeing a surly Ty Cobb staring back at her when they're in bed. Talk about a buzz kill.
