Butter up!
The minors are a great stage to showcase some creativity. Take Tampa Bay's Double-A squad, the Montgomery Biscuits, for example.
For starters, the team is named after a biscuit. Now, the team unveiled its new hat, titled the "Biscuit Lid," according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.
Congrats to @JesseAlkire and the "Biscuit Lid" for winning the Design a Hat Contest!

The artist, Jesse Alkire, described the hat as "baseball's first hat design fresh baked to look like a fluffy biscuit."
Full disclosure, this was just a contest, and the club has no plans of sporting these hats on the field.
