PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- In the heat of passion, many crazed baseball fans have said they would die for a championship. But are they willing to take that devotion to the grave?

With a new venture that will put Major League Baseball team logos on urns and caskets, the league and a company that makes funeral products will find out just how many fans want to be decked out in their team colors and logos for eternity.

Starting next season, fans of the New York Yankees (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/teams/yankees), Boston Red Sox (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/teams/red_sox), Detroit Tigers (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/teams/tigers), Philadelphia Phillies (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/teams/phillies), Chicago Cubs (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/teams/cubs) and Los Angeles Dodgers (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/teams/dodgers) will be able to have their ashes put in an urn or head six feet under in a casket emblazoned with their team colors and insignia.
