The Toronto Cat-Dogs are among the worst teams in Ontario Intercity Baseball League history - but what they lack in skill they make up for in character.
Why the hell would you want to play for the Toronto Boxsprings? They’re a bad team in a lousy inter-county league. They’re owned by a crappy discount mattress store. Even their locker room sucks - stuck in the leaky basement of a local dive bar. Amateur baseball is supposed to be fun, but the petty squabbles, power struggles and occasional hook-ups on this team are enough to give even the most zen person a migraine. So why do these nine players do it? Well, there’s a certain ethos to The Boxsprings - call it laissez-faire, life-affirming or just plain old hard-partying - that’s impossible to deny. The games may be humdrum, but the real dazzling plays happen during the after-parties. The Boxpsprings might be mediocre-as-hell on the field, but with a beer in their hands, they’re goddamned Hall of Famers! And when the last out is recorded, the real games begin...
