What is Kansaska, you ask?

Take a trip back to 1948 and spend a summer in the Kansaska Retail Agricultural Products league. In the first half of the 20th Century, semi-pro baseball leagues thrived throughout the United States. The legendary K.R.A.P. League was no exception. Kansaska centers on the lowly Portis Eskimos. 19 years removed from their last championship, the Eskimos are motivated to win. Motivated by love. Motivated by social justice. Motivated by aliens.

Kansaska is an unlikely love story, set in the backdrop of post WWII middle America. If you enjoyed Trolley Dodgers, get ready for more laughs with Kansaska.
