Random DS9 S4 Question

So I'm watching my S4 set and I get to the episode "Starship Down." At the end of the episode Sisko throws Kira a baseball hat. Does anyone know what team that hat belongs to? It looks like a Homestead Greys hat (a Negro League team Josh Gibson played for) but I'm not sure.

As minute an issue as this is, it's driving me nuts, HELP!

The DS9 Companion makes no mention of it. Knowing Avery Brooks, it's a possibilty. Though this type of... pride... would not affect the character of Sisko for a while yet. It could be a fake team too. In season 7, Brooks and Lofton get to pick their own caps for an episode, Brooks picked the Giants, and Lofton picked the Braves.

Speaking of baseball in the series, I still say one of the best Star Trek episodes was the pilot of DS9, where:
Spoiler:
Sisko uses baseball to explain linear existence
. God I love this show......

Thanks to Chew, I have no corrected the potential spoiler and also learned something new

since this states it's a season 4 question I will not use spoilers. IF you have not seen up to season 4 I do not suggest reading any further.














I thought was the hat from Kassidy's brothers team. Pike city pioneers.

All valid explinations. I just couldn't help but notice the uncanny resemblence to the Greys cap. I can't do screen captures from the DVD but here's what a Homestead Greys cap looks like:

Yes, that's a Greys hat. I love that episode, also, and just watched it a few days ago. Sisko knows the game and it's history (remember when Dax knew how serious he was about Kassidy because he took her to the Holosuite to see Bob Gibson pitch? ), so it's not unusual for him to have a hat like that.

Nana looked cute as Hell in it, also

I totally forgot about that... So I wasn't completely losing my mind and imagining random baseball caps!
