Posada adds that touch to many, but not all, his pants. He has also added it to his jersey on occasion.

I believe David Wright puts his grandparents initials inside his hats but I have not seen one first-hand.

I owned a few Red Sox 2007 WS hats and a couple players wrote messages - it seems the Sox guys do it more than most other teams.

I saw about a year or so ago a Robinson Cano hat with his parents name on each side under the brim.

Not a hat but, I have Posada's pants he wrote his wife and his 2 kids names on the inseam.

that would be cool, especially after reading about his son many surgeries to correct a rare health problem. his wife is a trooper too.

i had seen photos of the inside of a brandon wood cap that had initials of certain family members. i want to say they were of his parents' and possibly his sister's and grandparents( at least his grandfather for certain ).

Here is the Delcarmen - if it's not appropriate, please delete this post.

The 9-9-07 is the date Delcarmen's son was born. As far as I can research, the "code" dates back to the '07 season as bullpen coach Gary Tuck would often wear a shirt that said "Stick To The Code"

That right there is GOLDEN. I love the hat.

Not gu hats, but after some drinks Mickey Mantle would sometimes include unrepeatable salutations with his autograph. Think words that start with the letter F.

Dwight Smith, former Cubs OF, gave me a cap at the end of the 1993 season. In addition to his number, the inscription "Shitty Smitty" was also present.

Also, Ray King sent me a Cardinals Sunday alternate GU cap a few years ago. Among other scribblings under the brim were 82 tally marks, in groups of five. I looked up his stats...82 was the number of appearances he made that season.

Yes, I did buy it from Hunt. It was sold in a lot with many other Sowers items -- I believe there were 2 jerseys and 2 pants but can't remember if there were any other items in the lot. The only thing left is the cap.

thats one of those great surprise i bet. no way they showed that inscription in the photo or description.

Re: Game Used MLB Hats with Personal Messages

I have Jeremy Sowers' Team USA game used cap. Inside the cap, he has written:

"Do it for Al Bundy"

I don't normally collect Team USA or Cleveland Indians gear, but this one was a classic.
