CC Sabathia, who pitched the last 11 seasons of his 19-year Major League career in New York, will be wearing a Yankees cap in his Hall of Fame plaque.

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum announced on Monday the logos for members of the Class of 2025. Sabathia is joined by pitcher Billy Wagner (Houston Astros), and outfielders Ichiro Suzuki (Seattle Mariners), Dave Parker (Pittsburgh Pirates) and the late Dick Allen (Philadelphia Phillies).

The five members and/or their families had input on the logos, with the Hall of Fame making the final decision. Inductees had made the pick through 2001.

The 10-time All-Star spent three seasons with the Miami Marlins (2015-17) before rejoining the Mariners in 2019 and retiring after two games.

Wagner, 53, played for the Astros from 1995-2003, then the Phillies (2004-05), New York Mets (2006-08), Boston Red Sox (2009) and Atlanta Braves (2010). He was a seven-time All-Star.

Parker, age 73, played for the Pirates from 1973-83, winning the Most Valuable Player Award in 1978. The seven-time All-Star also played for the Cincinnati Reds (1984-87), Oakland Athletics (1988-89), Brewers (1990), California Angels (1991) and Toronto Blue Jays (1991).

Parker and the late Dick Allen, who died in 2020 at age 78, were elected by the 16-member Classic Baseball Era Committee on Dec. 8.

Allen played for the Phillies from 1963-69 and 1975-76, winning National League Rookie of the Year in 1964. The seven-time All-Star also played for the St. Louis Cardinals (1970), Los Angeles Dodgers (1971), Chicago White Sox (1972-74, including the MVP in in 1972) and Athletics (1977).
