D'Myna Leagues

D'Myna Leagues is a Canadian animated television series, which aired on CTV from 2000 to 2004.[2] Loosely based on the baseball writing of W. P. Kinsella,[2] the series was set in a world populated by anthropomorphic birds, and centred on the minor league baseball team in the town of Mynaville.[3] The baseball games were represented by placing 2-dimensional characters in 3-dimensional backgrounds.[4] The teams of bird characters were opposed by rival teams like the Weasels, the Pigs, the Beavers and the Elephants.[5]
