Why was it that Chief Wahoo got cut from the Cleveland Indians baseball cap?”
Major League Baseball pulled the plug on a Cleveland Indians cap that caused some controversy last year. MLB started producing a line of “Stars and Stripes” baseball caps but many thought that Chief Wahoo adorning Old Glories red, white, and blue was out of bounds. This season the commemorative cap, which some proceeds go to help retiring veterans, will be the mid-80’s Tribe cap with just a letter C. You can purchase the special edition Indians merchandise through MLB’s official store.
