His name was barely known to sportswriters at the time, who occasionally got it wrong in print, but Carl Yastrzemski would go on to a 23-year Hall of Fame career with the Boston Red Sox, winning the Triple Crown in 1967.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYastrzemski hit .377 for the Capitals in 1959, leading the Carolina League in hits, doubles, and batting average, and was named the league's Player of the Year, an award presented to him mid-game when a contest at Devereux Meadow was paused in the third inning so he could accept it. Raleigh finished the regular season in first place, six and a half games ahead of the Wilson Tobs, only to be swept by Wilson in the best-of-seven playoffs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Capitals name had been used by Raleigh teams as far back as the 1920s Piedmont League, and Raleigh had also won Carolina League titles in 1946 and 1947 under an earlier postwar incarnation of the team. After the Capitals' run ended in 1962, the same Raleigh franchise was renamed the Mets, then the Cardinals, then the Pirates, before merging into the Durham Bulls in 1968.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRetro Baseball Revival celebrates historic baseball teams with unique apparel, honoring their legacy and bringing history to one-of-a-kind clothing with our old school retro baseball tees from defunct Minor League Baseball teams.
