Baseball in Canada! You probably thought it was played by men in parkas underhanding snowballs to batters full of seal meat who race to first base, limbs flailing, in a pair of snowshoes.

But, no. Turns out they play it there pretty much how we play it here. And a lot of them play it here, too.

The Canadian National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum! You probably thought it was an ancient castle built into the side of North Twin Peak, guarded by polar bears wearing catchers masks, with a massive PA system on top that plays ballpark melodies to trigger an avalanche in the event of an invasion.
