MLB Armed Forces Day 2023: Where to buy commemorative caps, best deals, and more 

MLB has a variety of days throughout the season dedicated to honoring various causes and groups. On Saturday, May 20, Major League Baseball will observe Armed Forces Day 2023 with players donning a special Armed Forces hat collection during games that weekend in honor of those who serve.

Armed Forces Day, established by President Harry S. Truman in 1949, is traditionally celebrated each year on the third Saturday of May. Throughout the weekend, players and coaches will wear camouflage-designed caps, as well as optional camo-themed socks.

Major League Baseball and MLB Charities have been long-time supporters of the military community and will continue to support nonprofit organizations that focus on the needs of military veterans, service members, and families.
