Ketchup is a mascot for the Chicago Dogs, an American minor league baseball team, who serves as a foil to the team's main mascot, Squeeze. While Squeeze, a honey mustard-like creature, is the team's primary mascot, Ketchup was introduced on April 1, 2020, as an "official mascot" in a playful April Fools' Day announcement following Squeeze's "retirement". The choice of Ketchup as a mascot likely plays on the local tradition in Chicago of avoiding ketchup on hot dogs.
