The New Westminster Frasers were a minor league baseball team located in British Columbia, Canada. The Frasers were members of the short-season Class A Northwest League for a single season in 1974. Following the season the New Westminster franchise was contracted by the Northwest League. The comedic exploits of the Frasers are chronicled in the book Burning Up the Infield: The 1974 Frasers[1] co-authored by Ken McIntosh and Rod Drown. The book was later adapted as a stage play performed by City Stage New West.[2]
