THE CAPE COD LEAGUE IN POPULAR CULTURE

The Cape Cod League was the setting for the 2001 movie ''Summer Catch''. In 2002, writer Jim Collins followed the Chatham Athletics for the season and wrote ''The Last Best League'' (ISBN 0306814188) about the team and its players. A documentary film, ''Touching the Game'', chronicled the 2003 CCBL season and explored the league's history. The novel ''Slider'' (ISBN 006058033X) was also based on the CCBL.
