Colleen and Chrystal bring you the story of a minor league team in Utah that played just eight seasons, but won four Pioneer League titles and set a professional baseball record that still stands -- 29 consecutive wins in 1987, on their way to a three-peat. Part-owned by Bill Murray, before the actor co-founded the St. Paul Saints, the Salt Lake City Trappers had one of the great lightning-in-a-bottle runs in baseball history, all without an affiliation to a major league team after having began their existence in Calgary, where they had been a farm team for the Cardinals and Expos before Alberta got Triple-A baseball (now just as gone as the Trappers, alas).
