Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the Canadian Baseball Network

We, at the Canadian Baseball Network, wanted to wish a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays and all the best in Canadian baseball for 2022!

And we wanted to do it in a special way.

So with the help of some of our closest friends in Canadian baseball, we have put together this holiday video for you.
