Back in July, the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens, right-wise International League affiliate of the Growlin' Tigers, announced plans to convert Fifth Third Field into a mini-golf course. For whom would they do this? The people, natch.
Said mini-golf course will soon be open to the public, and that means it's now in fighting shape. So let's have a look at what the Mud Hens have done. Come with us, won't you? (All photos via USATSI.)

As sports-related exercises in cross-pollination go, this has been a fine one. Well done, Mud Hens.
