1994-96 Oneonta Yankees

For those with a keen sense of foreshadowing, last week's Oneonta Tigers cap might have been a pretty good clue that I would be featuring the infamous Oneonta Yankees for this week's Fresh Fitted Friday selection.



A class-act logo like this deserves the retro treatment although I'd be hoping for true-to-original dimensions and flat embroidery.

My sweet spot for sweatband tags (sweat spot?) has always been 1994 through 1996 and I'm so happy that a cap I've been on the hunt for all these years features that set of tags.

I would have been ok if this cap didn't feature the MILB batterman but it's a nice touch on this one because at least no one would mistake it for a college team or one from any other sport for that matter.

If you're a regular reader here you know that that the Oneonta Yankees hat is one that's been on my Wish List for a long time and I imagine that being the case for anyone who collected MILB cards in the 80's and 90's as well. A great many Yankee greats got their start in Oneonta and it's going to be fun to wear this cap to Yankee Stadium this season.

This one is not going on the Trading Block however please don't hesitate to reach out if you want any other cap from that list and you are willing to part with any of the hats on my Wish List.
