Back in January, Rob Lowe went to the NFC Championship Game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Green Bay Packers. He dressed for the occasion by wearing a black hat that had the NFL logo on it, which led to a bunch of people getting a whole lot of jokes off via social media and Lowe making the obvious Chris Traeger joke about the entire thing.

Lowe is a sports fan, and it turns out that another major American league wanted to take out a bit of real estate on top of his head. Lowe appeared on the Talkin’ Baseball podcast alongside his son, Matt, and explained that Major League Baseball used two-day shipping to get him a league hat after the cameo.
“I do!” Lowe said when he was asked about whether he has an MLB hat. “I almost [wore it]. I can go get it. I have an MLB … literally within 48 hours of wearing that hat, the MLB sent me their version of it. I have it in my closet.”
As he mentioned, Lowe was not wearing that hat during his podcast cameo. Instead, he opted to go with a hat that he has worn recently that spoofs the Houston Astros logo by putting an asterisk behind the “H,” in reference to the team’s sign-stealing scandal.
