Andre Dawson to Wear Expos Cap in Hall
by Ed Price
The Baseball Hall of Fame on Wednesday announced that Andre Dawson -- the only new member elected by the BBWAA this year -- will be wearing an Expos cap on his plaque.
The choice was up for debate because "The Hawk" won his only MVP award as a member of the Cubs.
But Dawson spent his first 11 seasons in Montreal and just six in Chicago (plus two each with Boston and Florida).
"I respect the Hall of Fame's decision to put an Expos logo on my cap, and I understand their responsibility to make sure the logo represents the greatest impact in my career," Dawson said in a statement released by the Hall of Fame. "Cubs fans will always be incredibly important in my heart, and I owe them so much for making my time in Chicago memorable, as did the fans in Montreal, Boston and South Florida, my home. But knowing that I'm on the Hall of Fame team is what's most important, as it is the highest honor I could imagine."
