Listen up, buttercup. This joke is a play on words. "Outstanding in his field" can mean the scarecrow is really good at what he does, or it can mean he's literally just standing in a field, which is where scarecrows live. It's funny because it uses the same phrase for two different meanings. You probably think of fields as the ones you run through after you leave the refrigerator door open, right?
