With Disney as the new owner and a renovated stadium, the team changes its name again to the Anaheim Angels, and totally revises its look and colors. The MLB logo is embroidered on as of 1993. The Angels return to a look reminiscent of the late 1960's, and a road cap is introduced. Over the course of the year it becomes embroidered directly. In 1992 the MLB logo gets glued on the back. My guess? Maybe they ran out of caps in that size and bought some at the store. This style cap with squared visor was mostly made for the retail market (see Capmaker History page, New Era), and is one of the only game used examples I've seen. (Note- there's a New Era version but it was NOT worn by the team.) The logo changed to a "CA" but the cap design remains. Upon moving into their new stadium in Anaheim the team is renamed the California Angels. Beginning play as the Los Angeles Angels, the first cap had the classic halo on the crown.
