    The teams that will be featured on the plaques of the members of the 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame Class were unveiled on Monday.
    Pitcher CC Sabathia will have a New York Yankees logo on his cap after spending the majority of his career in New York and Cleveland, according to the Associated Press (h/t ESPN).
    Closer Billy Wagner’s hat will feature the Houston Astros while outfielder Ichiro Suzuki will be wearing a Seattle Mariners cap, via ESPN. Dave Parker will be represented with a Pittsburgh Pirates cap and Dick Allen will have the Philadelphia Phillies’ logo.
    Players and their families were allowed to give input on the team choices to the Hall of Fame, but the final decisions were ultimately made by the Hall.
    Sabathia totaled three of his six All-Star appearances in Cleveland before finishing his career in New York, winning a World Series title with the Yankees in 2009. Still, he spent the most time with the Bronx Bombers and has been consistent with the team he’d choose to be featured on his plaque following his retirement.
