The Cape Cod Baseball League is a baseball league located on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, in which many college baseball stars play during the summer. A myriad of future Major League Baseball players have started there. The league is also notable for its continuing use of wooden bats. Because it draws top-tier college players, the level of play is often considered the equivalent of high-A Minor League Baseball.

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 about the team and its players.

The fictional book Slider was also based off the Cape Cod League.
