How do i wash a baseball cap without making it crinkle?

i need to wash a baseball cap which turned a bit yellow with a cleaner i used, but everyother time i put a baseball cap in the washing machine, it would crinkle and ruin the hat, so how else can i wash the marks off?|||I wash my hubbies ball caps in cold water and do not put them in the dryer. If you put them in the dryer it shrinks them and the bill of the hat crinkles and looks awful. Just dry the hat by sitting it on top of the dryer or somewhere where it is warm. Hope this works|||but what about the gold sticker??? you know 59FIFTY? how can i keep it on there?

Get some cool water, a little woolite, and a brush, and work the dirt/sweat out of the hat.
