High atop Turner Field, above the left field fence is the Coca-Cola Skyfield. Above the Skyfield, right near the Bob Uecker seats is what might appear to a casual viewer as a rather garish oddity, a folk-art Coke bottle. Take a close-up look at the bottle and it is made up of everyday items found on any baseball field. According to the sign posted nearby, the Coke bottle contains:

• 60 shoes
• 2000 bottle caps
• 48 batting helmets
• 2000 Coca-Cola cans
• 18 catchers mitts
• 86 Fielders gloves
• 290 bats
• 6680 baseballs
• 24 jerseys
• 64 bases
• 16 chest protectors
• 24 pitching rubbers

Skyfield is open to the public, so the next time you take in an Atlanta Braves game, make sure you take a little time to take in Georgia's most unusual Coke bottle
