Can you post a pic of the New Era label? That might help in pinning down the year(s) of issue.

Re: Need Help W/ Hat...tigers...von Hayes Quote
I'll look at some of my hats at home. Not all of my hats are GU, but retail tagging on New Era hats still may be helpful. Do any of the players have a known association with Von Hayes (teammate, coach, etc.)?
I'm curious what other gems you found in that bin. I saw your Fred Lynn hat on eBay. Sounds like fun, but a lot of possible frustration trying to identify players

The handwriting of that "20" looks very similiar to Infante's

The saying may have been written by the player but the number was most likely written by the Tigers clubbie or batboy.

Thank you all... I guess I'll lean towards it being an Infante hat & do some more homework trying to match it...I do appreciate everyones help.
