But the ruggedly handsome, blue-eyed actor is best known for back-to-back roles some 30 years ago in Field of Dreams, playing the blackballed baseball legend Shoeless Joe Jackson opposite Kevin Costner and James Earl Jones — “Man, I did love this game,” Jackson says — and starring as mobster Henry Hill in Scorsese’s genre classic Goodfellas. Who can forgot his tense back-and-forth with Pesci’s Tommy DeVito: “I’m funny like a clown — I amuse you?”
