Q: How do I squish the aspect ratio on my display?

I'm using an HDMI, outputting through an HDMI->RCA converter to an old Samsung TV. I'd like to be able to play from my 13" Macbook Pro, but the aspect ratio when it appears on the TV is squished in on the sides, making it too tall and not wide enough. I've looked on the TV's settings, and there's no way to change the aspect ratio through the TV to fix it. Can I instead change the aspect ratio on my computer so that although it'll look too wide on my computer screen, it'll compensate when the TV squishes it back in?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)
