The Atlanta Braves are among seven major league teams getting new lids for spring training in 2017.
The Braves' cap, which has traditionally featured a variant of an "A," will have the Tomahawk usually fashioned across the chest of the jersey.

Major League Baseball will continue to feature the highway-like road sign for the Grapefruit League it introduced in last year's designs.

Among the other teams getting new cap designs are the Tampa Rays, New York Yankees and New York Mets.

Braves pitchers and catchers will report for camp on Feb. 14. The Braves' Grapefruit League schedule includes 18 games at Disney, including the Feb. 25, 2017, opener against the Toronto Blue Jays.
