It's easy when you play with rejects and a fat kid

Outfielders

Minor league baseball logos are far cooler than their grown-up counterparts — they usually employ cartoons, keeping things more playful and not as serious as the professionals who feel the need to turn themselves into unnaturally muscle-bound freaks in order to play. Which is refreshing in a culture that treats sports as less of a game and more of a religion or dangerous cult. I’ve actually seen someone beaten with a stick over a Red Sox game. One of those situations where you have to sit back with some popcorn and laugh, because otherwise you’d cry.

Anyway, I was always more of a tee ball guy, but I understand that some people aren’t scared of projectiles being lobbed at them. So I present to you, The Dedleg Outfielders. However, try-outs were last Saturday. So… sorry champ, maybe next year.
