On Tuesday, New Era released the latest series of hats officially authorized by MLB, allowing fans to see the "local market" series for the first time. The series aims to use relevant icons and symbols to encapsulate the hometown of each team.

On the contrary, well, New Era did it.

New Era removed all capital letters from its website on Tuesday night, making it available less than 24 hours before it was removed.

The Nationals version of the hat has a curly W on top of the banknote between the iconic 202 area code in Washington and the year commemorating the year when the United States declared independence from the United Kingdom in 1776-an event that occurred 14 years before the establishment of the city of Washington.

The hat also includes the logo of the 2019 World Series, an outline of the area in 1901 (the first season of the Washington Senators), and an icon depicting a bald eagle and a hot dog for some reason. Or maybe it's a tribute to the half-smoke sold by local agency Ben's Chili Bowl? After all, there is a Ben's stand in the National Park.

Who knows, really? The logo is not entirely accurate. The Philadelphia Phillies version also has the same 1776 logo on the hat. For Philadelphia, it makes more sense than DC

There are also some interesting options for the Orioles hats, the most notable being the cut on the back of Edgar Allen Poe's head. Crab makes sense. The outline of Maryland is also embroidered with 1954—the year the St. Louis Browns moved to Baltimore—and some local area codes. 

Fans did not give too many positive responses on social media in any market.

The local market value of Major League Baseball in the new era is the most annoying baseball design because it makes Mike Trout and Reese Hoskins look like cartoon spotted hats pic.twitter.com/VKtY2bnf84

Who at New Era approves the "graphic design is my passion" approach to their local market? pic.twitter.com/wdjqzl7ud5

Update (6:45 PM EST): This story has been updated to reflect New Era's removal of all "local market" items from its website.
