I can imagine Dogs Playing Baseball. Yes, yes, there is that lack of opposible thumbs to get past, but at least dogs are able to stand on their hind legs for short periods of time and can be trained to "stay" and "go" on the command of their Master and presumably of their First Base Coach.
Cats on the other hand, well, the phrase "like trying to herd cats" pretty much sums up the prospects of a group of them ever cooperating in a joint effort.
But for the cat lovers of the world, I present a snippet from an 1880s patent medicine almanac. This is a two part panel entitled Our National Game, which I split into halves to fit better:
And chaos ensues.....
Hmmm. I can't figure out the two objects in the lower right corner. Just barely seen in the first panel. Lamps? End tables? A bit of historical detail lost due to lack of context.

Upon double-clicking to see the image large, the objects appear to be broken toadstools.
The stands have cleared, but the fans have not rushed the field, all their tales are seen standing straight up as they go over the fence at the back of the bleachers.
Scaredy cats?
Make that tails.
You are right!
btw, I did not know you could double click and "biggify" images that way.
Now, why are there toadstools on a baseball field...
