I wonder if these were fitted caps.

May 4, 2005 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -- Thieves hijacked a shipment of 47,000 New York Yankees caps meant for a fan giveaway at Yankee Stadium this weekend. Team spokesman Rick Cerrone had no additional details regarding the robbery. The Yankees have received about half the hats for the Cap Weekend giveaway Friday and Saturday against Oakland. Fans not receiving a cap will be given a voucher. New York, which remade its lineup this week after slumping in April, is playing a four-game series at Tampa Bay that concludes Thursday.

You'd think, with all these teams, all this flying around, there'd be a planecrash, and wipe out an entire team?
