Hamilton, making a comeback after three years away from the game due to multiple drug suspensions, helps real estate broker Richard C. Davis restore the former home of baseball great Shoeless Joe Jackson in Greenville, S.C.

The one-hour show was taped last year, when Hamilton was doing construction work before Major League Baseball granted him permission to play minor-league baseball.
As the above blockquote indicates, it's been quite the bumpy road for Hamilton, as drug addictions have hindered a promising career.
