I just finished watching the Red Sox / Indians game. The Indians scored seven runs in the eleventh inning. Go Cleveland.
I don't know how I feel about all of the strange iterations MLB fan caps... the green hat with Red Sox logo and the washed out beige hat... I'm a purist when it comes to baseball. And logos. People just have too many choices these days. Which reminds me...
For awhile, when I was little, Dairy Queen was serving ice cream sundaes in adorable little baseball helmets. My brother and I had tons of them, because we would get them after baseball/softball games. I wonder what ever happened to all of those. I'd love to have them now. I remember being disappointed/intrigued when I'd get an American League team, especially the Oakland A's. American League teams seemed to be dated and old fashioned. However, I did really like the Angels' helmet. That was my first introduction to the American League, before bastardized interleague play. It was probably my first introduction to logo design, as well.

I just finished watching the Red Sox / Indians game, too...and I say, boo.
Oh, and I agree with you about the green hats...and the green shirts which everyone is wearing around here. It'd be one thing if it were even aesthetically pleasing, which it's not. I support your logo purist ideals and add that if you're gonna fuck with tradition at least make it attractive.
